PRETENDING
I am broken
I cannot be fixed
I have hurt before
But not like this
So I'm pretending
Yeah I'm pretending
that you're here with me
I can't take the pain, the reality
That for now it just can't be
So I'm pretending
I can open the skies to Heaven
Run up to the pearly gates
Beg to meet my Maker
And ask Him why he couldn't wait
Life is too hard without you
And this void I cannot fill
Believe me I have tried to
But I know I never will
So I'm pretending
Yeah I'm pretending
That you're on the road
Having too much fun
to bother calling home
Still Pretending....
I keep waiting for it to get better
But there's no way to deal with this
Unthinkable's my only answer
When you were such an amazing kid
No, I can't face the truth...
Life is too hard without you
So lonely without you
So I'm pretending
I can open the skies to Heaven
Run up to the pearly gates
Beg to meet my Maker
And ask Him why he couldn't wait
Life is too hard without you
And this void I cannot fill
Believe me I have tried to
But I know I never will
I'm pretending
you're not really gone
It's the only way
I keep living on
By Pretending
