Hard to Pretend

[Verse 1]
Cold waves
Why do I return to the sea?
Salt in my head
Who will remember the song?
Now that you're gone

[Chorus]
Maybe I'm living upside down
Maybe I'm forgetting
It's hard to pretend
Hard to pretend
Afraid of the
Ever dark beneath us reachin' up
Better start believin'
It's hard to pretend
All this pretending

[Verse 2]
Tell me
Why do I pretend not to feel?
Lost to the sand
You would remind me the song
Guiding that song

[Bridge]
Sinkin' fast with this heavy heart
Why can't I just admit it
It's hard to pretend
It's hard to pretend
When the tide's turning, throw me back
Just to forget the feeling
It's hard to pretend
It's hard to pretend
Sinkin' fast with this heavy heart
I can barely admit it
It's hard to pretend
Always pretending

[Chorus]
Maybe I'm living upside down
Maybe I'm forgetting
It's hard to pretend
Hard to pretend
Afraid of the
Ever dark beneath us reachin' up
Better start believin'
It's hard to pretend
All this pretending

[Outro]
Shouldn't I
Shouldn't I
Shouldn't I
Just stop pretending
