Текст песни How to Pretend - CircusP

Breathe in breathe now
You have to calm down
Let me show you somewhere we could hide
We can stay in here until sunrise
Moving forward
Step by step once more
Follow my instructions you'll be fine
This will only hurt for a short time
With promises of freedom
I would never lie to you
Only speaking the way you do too
How great that it must be
To walk outside and see
Others just like you and not
I am not like you
I can't do all that you do
No matter how desperately I want to
When you look into my eyes you see
A mirage of something trustworthy
I'm not your enemy
No more anxiety
Though you're right to be wary
'Cause I know how to pretend
How to pretend
Breathe in breathe out
I'm lost in here now
And of course I know that
There's no way I can turn back
I'm left in the dark
To play my part
Follow every lie you feed me
As they lead to more and more agony
Are we on the same team after all this time?
Are we really feeling a pain of the same kind?
Watching from the outside
You can't see all the things I do
You're a circus monster
And now's your cue
You were right
When you said that we're not the same
Because unlike you
I can feel pain
When I look into your eyes I see
A facade you are not trustworthy
You are my enemy
Faking your empathy
I was right to be wary
When you know how to pretend
How to pretend
When you look into my eyes you see
A mirage of something trustworthy
I'm not your enemy
No more anxiety
Though you're right to be wary
'Cause I know you're not good at pretending
Come dance and we'll be prismatic
I'm not falling for all your tricks
Let's out on a show before the curtain falls
(Before the curtain falls) I won't take a bow
It's time our finale's now
This mangled freakshow is where we end it all (Is where we start it all)
