Pretending....
Written by Dark~Moon~Dancer

"Ohhhhh.... OOoohhhhooooo.....
I tripped and lay in pain,
And yet you didn't help me up,
I reached for you,
And yet... you.... pulled away.....
(Chorus above)

So I stand here,
Watching you walk away,
As if you never did care,
On the outside I am strong,
But inside... inside....
My heart and soul,
They ache,

Ohhhhhh........

I can stand here and pretend,
Pretend I didn't know that as you looked back,
I wouldn't know what your reaction would be.
I can stand here,
wishing you'd turn around and come back,
Pretend your not serious,
Like this was all some sick joke,

(chorus)

Oooohhhhhhh........
But as I watch you disappear into the dark horzion,
I hang my head,
And try to delay my pain,
Try to pretend I don't feel it,
After a while I'll turn away,
After a long cold silence.

Ohhhh!
In time I'll let go,
Let go of my hope for you,
Let go of my fantasy of you ever coming back.
I'll stop pretending.

Ohhhhh.... OOoohhhhooooo.....
I tripped and lay in pain,
And yet you didn't help me up,
I reached for you,
And yet... you.... pulled away.....
(repeat two-three times whilest fading away into silence)

Crit- anyone?
