Play Pretend Lyrics by Puppet

Fear Is Fleeting EP

2016

[Verse 1]
"I didn't feel alive," she said
I keep falling through the floor
When do I get to see the world
I've been fighting all these battles for?

Just because I can't sing
Doesn't mean that I can't feel
All my demons, all my everything
Aren't any less real

[Verse 2]
She said "Let's play pretend and live our lives"
We can be who we wanna be
I'll be a singer and you'll be a writer
We'll finally be free

If we're lucky, we'll live together forever
And you'll never have to be
Alone in this world full of bullshit and terror
Without me

[Verse 3]
But, playing pretend isn't always happy
We care, we pretend we don't
If I was a singer, I'd sing to the world
About what hurts me the most

If you were a writer, you could write me a story
And leave out all my regrets
A life full of passion, a life full of glory
It would never have to end

[Outro]
She said
