 Struggling with Pretend? Become a better singer in 30 days with these videos!

You took away from me, I tried to get it back
And if you lie to me, I keep it to myself
A trick or treat but then that don't make it right
I can't remember when, I could say goodnight

Then something comes into my head and then a change
I work it out somehow, I guess I've got my ways
But then I wonder how did I get it wrong
It doesn't matter now

I pretend, I pretend, yeah, yeah, yeah

I take the longest walks, they always do me good
I just indulge myself in sorrow singing blues
But then I have to laugh 'cause it's an outlet too
And if I add it all, it still just wouldn't do

I've come to realize there's nothing I can lose
So I control myself nothing else to do
I'll just remember when it comes around again
I'd rather be alone, I won't get hurt again

I pretend, I pretend, yeah, yeah, yeah

Let me tell you now
Can you hear me now, yeah

Then something comes into my head and then a change
I work it out somehow, I guess I've got my ways
I take the longest walks, it always does me good
I just control myself

I pretend, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I pretend, yeah, yeah, yeah
I pretend, I pretend, yeah, yeah, yeah
I, I take the longest walks, oh I laugh to myself but I pretend, yeah
I pretend
