This song is about a relationship in which the girlfriend is having an affair. They play pretend as if it’s not happening, but they both know it is.
[Verse 1]
Are you happy now baby?
With your eyelashes on
Is it a new revelation?
Who you tryna cover up for?
Yeah, I heard that you've been changing
Heard you got a new man
You've been doing things lately I don't understand
[Pre-Chorus]
Go ahead play pretend
The truth hurts but in the end
[Hook]
At least we were honest
Honestly, something isn't right
I know you're lying, babe
Lying with him at night
We used to sleep together
Through all the lows and highs
We used to see in color
Now it's just black and white
At least we were honest [x2]
[Verse 2]
It was so close baby
So close I locked every door
I used to tell you everything now I can't open up anymore
Guess I'm the one that's faking, oh
Guess I'm the one that's faking now
[Hook]
At least we were honest
Honestly, something isn't right
I know you're lying, babe
Lying with him at night
We used to sleep together
Through all the lows and highs
We used to see in color
Now it's just black and white
At least we were honest [x2]
