Pretend Lyrics by Yakul

Rise Indigo

2021

[Verse 1]
I didn’t know that time flies by
Gone in the blink of my eye
Even when I try to catch it disappears on me
I still don’t see the reason why
Why we give up on our lives
Even when I try to stop my thoughts ain’t listening

[Pre Chorus]
Heard whispers of the future calling my name
Don’t wish for the dark to hold you
Feel closer now the sunlights falling away
Don’t wish for the dark to hold

[Chorus]
Tempting my downfall
Never to be seen again
Relish the downpour
Drowning so I don’t pretend

[Verse 2]
You came out of the darkest cloud
Yeah I didn’t hear no sound
Even when I try to catch you you’re slipping away
Too quick for me to rearrange
Just tell me the way and I’ll change
Whether it’s the right direction or if it’s too late

[Pre Chorus]
Heard whispers of the future calling my name
Don’t wish for the dark to hold you
Feel closer now the sunlights falling away
Don’t wish for the dark to hold

[Chorus]
Tempting my downfall
Never to be seen again
Relish the downpour
Drowning so I don’t pretend

[Verse 3]
I didn’t know that time flies by
Gone in the blink of my eye
Even when I try to catch it disappears on me
