Αλλά τα βασικά πράγματα σε έναν άνθρωπο είναι τα μάτια του και τα πόδια του. Θα πρέπει να μπορεί να βλέπει τον κόσμο και να τρέχει ξοπίσω του...

The Happy Return – Pretend

Pretend, ever since I lost you
You put me in a costume
And said I just don’t recognize that name
Do you wanna know my secrets?
I think we’re undefeated
And I just don’t understand this game
I’m sick of it, but I’m a silly hypocrite
‘Cuz I’m just like you
My lips are superglued

I don’t wanna waste my breathe
The hourglass is empty
There’s no more time for us to figure out the ending now
No hard feelings, it’s just painful
We used to be lovers, now I’m just a fable to you

Pretend that I am just a stranger
You’re such an entertainer
The elephant is sick of this toxicated room
Is it almost time for recess
Get it over with or leave it
I’d call you but what is there to say?
I’m sick of it, but I’m a silly hypocrite
‘Cuz I’m just like you
My lips are superglued

I don’t wanna waste my breathe
The hourglass is empty
There’s no more time for us to figure out the ending now
No hard feelings, it’s just painful
We used to be lovers, now I’m just a fable to you

I didn’t wanna see this end
I couldn’t see it coming
There’s no more time for us to pick up all the pieces now
No hard feelings, it’s just painful
We used to be lovers, now it’s just a fable

Pretend we never were together
That we never said forever
From my head deleted, then you tell me I’m conceded
Is this really how it’s ending?
Are we really just pretending?
