The Art of Pretending

Just sounds coming out of my mouth
Not the way I feel
Not the way I feel
The stories that I can let out
Keep myself concealed
Myself concealed

Playing a part with no ending
Living the art of pretending
It’s who we are
Susceptible
Susceptible

We’re all in on the lies
All in on the lies
Painting alibis
In beautiful colours
To love one another

Maybe we’ll find that we’re lost in our heads
And we can’t be real
No we can’t we real
We blindside our own common sense
If we don’t reveal
What we don’t reveal

Playing with fire
There’s no ending
Living desires and pretending
It’s who we are
Susceptible
Susceptible

We’re all in on the lies
All in on the lies
Painting alibis
In beautiful colours
To love one another

We’re all in on the lies
All in on the lies
Painting alibis
In Beautiful colors
To love one another

I hope we’re not all a mess
When we realise we’ve gone too far
