Pretending
Kaneko Lumi
Just forget it
You make it so hard to fall with grace
On and on, I'm giving you the space
Could I take the risk?
The path of most resistance
Could I close the distance?
And it's so embarrassing
To ask me what's happening
But you know full well what's going on and on
Don't tell me I'm crazy
'Cause lately my mind's gone hazy
So could you hear me out?
I've got to find a way
The kettle's boiling stronger
Can't wait another day
Til I get burned by water
It's not for me, not today
How many times will I say
That thing, over and over
I've got to find a way
A way to guarantee it
That it'll be okay
Be fine and still believe it
No matter if it goes south
No matter if it goes down
It doesn't matter, yeah
Don't make it matter now
Tell me darling all that it would take
To make your world just stop to say my name
And like my head that's spinning, stop the days from ending
So I can stop pretending, pretending
Pretending that I am
Just meant to be standing here
Pretending you're nothing
It's nothing, it's not sincere
Pretending it's alright
To stay like this, stay like this
Pretending
Oh I'm sick of pretending
I've got to find a way
The kettle's boiling over
To set my heart ablaze
And drown my lungs in water
It's gotta be today
I know it sounds so cliche
But I can't wait much longer
I've got to find a way
These gifts I can't just leave them
Get past the narrow maze
To you, so you'll receive them
No matter if it goes south
No matter if it goes down
It doesn't matter, yeah
