Make Believe

[Verse 1]
Pack up all your things
I'll help you leave today
We said we'd do it
And today's the day
Don't care how we tried
It's gone a thousand times
We'll make it through this
There's no other way

[Pre Chorus]
If I'm the first
And I'm the only
Promise me I'll never be lonely
But only for as long as we believe

[Chorus]
We placed all our faith in sex
Broke it all, and now there's nothing left
Of my little world of make believe

[Verse 2]
Messed up everything
All set to wash away
Now I'm through living
As a criminal
No time for sentiment
Just time to pay the rent
But maybe I'm not ready
To grow up today

[Pre Chorus]
If I'm the first
And I'm the only
Promise me I'll never be lonely
But only for as long as we believe

[Chorus]
We placed all our faith in sex
Broke it all, and now there's nothing left
Of my little world of make believe

[Bridge]
I'm not ready to be thirty-two
And can't I just stay a while inside with you?
Far from the compromise
And shifty eyes and dirt
I'm not ready to be thirty-two
But I can't stay forever young with you

[Chorus]
Slam the door on my mixed-up ways
I can't live my life like I'm in sixth grade
In my little world of make believe

[Verse 3]
Guess that's everything
I'll watch you drive away
Here's all your pictures
There's most of mine
But I loved you more than this
I lived for your sweet kiss
You watched me grind away
And I watched you fade away

[Chorus]
We placed all our faith in sex
Broke it all, and now there's nothing left
Of my little world of make believe

[Post-Chorus]

My little world of make believe

[Outro]
Let me come back
To my world of make-believe
(My little world of make-believe)
My little world of make-believe
(Never go back to my world of make-believe)
Let me come back
To my world of make-believe
(My little world of make-believe)
My little world of make-believe
(Never go back)
