Play Pretend Lyrics by POORSTACY

The Breakfast Club (Deluxe)

2020

[Chorus]
I hate when I wake up, it never ends (Don't wanna do it but I do it again)
I just wanna stay up and play pretend (Play pretend, play pretend)
I hate when I wake up, it never ends (Don't wanna do it but I do it again)
I just wanna stay up and play pretend (Play pretend, play pretend)

[Verse]
Yeah, when you broke my heart it took me by surprise
When you look me in my eyes, girl, you make me feel alive
Sometimes I stay awake, I come alive in the night
Come alive in the night, I come alive in the night
I might stay up tonight and dig my grave (Dig my grave)
I can tell I'm reaching my end of days (End of days)
I know that I'm the reason you're in pain (You're in pain)
I would rather fight than see you live this way (Oh, oh, oh)

[Chorus]
I hate when I wake up, it never ends (Don't wanna do it but I do it again)
I just wanna stay up and play pretend (Play pretend, play pretend)
I hate when I wake up, it never ends (Don't wanna do it but I do it again)
I just wanna stay up and play pretend (Play pretend, play pretend)

[Bridge]
Stay up, stay up, stay up, stay up, stay up, stay up
End of days
Stay up, stay up, stay up, stay up, stay up, stay up

[Chorus]
I hate when I wake up, it never ends (Don't wanna do it but I do it again)
I just wanna stay up and play pretend (Play pretend, play pretend)
I hate when I wake up, it never ends (Don't wanna do it but I do it again)
I just wanna stay up and play pretend (Play pretend, play pretend)
