Just Pretend

Constant0123456789

            It’s easy to do,

We’re pirates today.

            Sail the seas,

Looting, plundering, free.

            Just pretend.

 

            It’s easy to do,

We’re adventurers now,

            Wander the woods,

Charting, hiding, free,

            Just pretend.

 

            It’s easy to do,

You’re in love,

            He doesn’t see,

Whisper, dream, sigh,

            Just pretend.

 

            It’s easy to do,

They’re so loud,

            Close the door,

Hum, cower, ignore,

            Just pretend.

 

            It’s easy to do,

Lift your head,

            Fake that smile,

Laugh, relax, exist,

            Just pretend.

 

            It’s easy to do,

I’m not okay,

            Just hide it,

I’m okay, I’m okay, I’m okay,

            Just pretend

                        It’s easy to do.
