Everyone Pretends

[Verse 1]
You know there's two sides to every story
That’s just the way life goes
One side you share with the world (and)
The side that nobody knows
So break out your Lana Del records
Call up all of your friends
Have them bring a beverage to share
And let the games begin
And let the games begin

[Chorus]
Sometimes it’s hard to be normal
(So we pretend)
Sometimes it’s hard to fit in
(So we pretend)
I’ve got a smile on my face right now, honey
But everyone pretends, everyone pretends
Everyone pretends
Everyone pretends

[Verse 2]
Now everybody is having a good time
Talking and laughing about
You play along like nothing is wrong
But your thoughts are bringing you down
Your thoughts are bringing you down
Your thoughts are bringing you down
And maybe you would rather be home
Just watching reruns of FRIENDS
But I won't tell if you don't tell
That everyone pretends
Hey, everyone pretends

[Chorus]
Sometimes it’s hard to be normal
(So we pretend)
Sometimes it’s hard to fit in
(So we pretend)
I’ve got a smile on my face right now, honey
But everyone pretends
Everyone pretends
Everyone pretends
Everyone pretends

[Bridge]
Faker fake it, fake it till you make it
Faker fake it, fake it till you make it
Faker fake it, fake it till you make it
I don’t know how much longer I can take it

Everyone pretends
Everyone pretends
Everyone pretends
Everyone pretends
