Lyrics
Can we just pretend that it's perfect?
Can we just pretend that it's worth this?
All this time we been feeling so worthless to each other (each other)
All these frowns behind smiles, we just know to keep them covered (covered)
All the pain and heartache
My mental drained, I'm not sane
Did my best, I tried my hardest
You let it slip took no blame, You just way too damn modest
Lie so much with no shame, it's like it hurts you to be honest (for you to be honest)
How could I when you couldn't keep a simple promise? Oh no
I kept my cool, so now my heart is freezing stone cold
She moved right out to Austin,Texas crazy how this shit just go and unfold
All your friends still hate me wit how you switched up all the stories you told (you told)
All that apologizing don't mean shit (no)
You done swerved and crashed out on the side of the road baby
You took one hand off the wheel and got scared that you was losing control
Control
Can we just pretend that it's perfect? (that it's perfect)
Can we just pretend we're not hurting? (we not hurting)
All the lack of communicating never gets fixed (no)
Losing more of ourselves every day, but we don't know how to quit
It's like
We just so deep in love with the conflict (the conflict)
Yea, so deep in love
So deep in love with the conflict
I didn't want all of this fighting, no (no)
But that's where we always seem to go (go)
I went away to find peace, yet you always follow behind me (behind me)
I thought i was your bride to be (bride to be)
So many dreams and aspirations (aspiration)
About what we could've been, but it never came to be (no)
It's just one of them things, we wasn't meant to see (meant to see)
None of this was close to what we wanted it to be
I couldn't find the beauty in the flaws in what we came to be
Can we just pretend that it's perfect?
Can we just pretend that it's worth this?
All this time we been feeling so worthless to each other
All these frowns behind smiles, we just know to keep them covered
