Bad Suns — Pretend lyrics

Lyrics

Sometimes I wish that we could all forget
Your figure fades into a silhouette
But I hear you breathing
I’m done believing
We’re painting portraits but the canvas is blank
If this life is a gift then who do we pay?
You’re desperate for the answer
It eats at you like cancer.
Tonight won’t ever end can we pretend, pretend, pretend
We’ll paint the walls instead and I’ll pretend, pretend, pretend again.
Your head is filled with unproven thoughts
twisting theories into bigger knots
and I feel you dreaming, you’re done believing
Ooh, pretend, pretend, pretend
…I'll pretend, pretend, pretend
We’ll paint the walls instead, and I’ll pretend, pretend, pretend.
I wanted to know you
Though I still don’t know myself
But there’s so much to show you
And you showed me that you care
Tonight won’t ever end if we pretend, pretend, pretend
I don’t want this to end so I’ll pretend, pretend, pretend instead
Ooh, pretend, pretend, pretend
No, tonight will never end if we pretend, pretend, pretend
Let’s turn it up Let’s turn it up cause I don’t want to see this go So let’s pretend, pretend, pretend instead
