Letra de Pretense

[Verso 1]
I’ll take it inward so no one sees
While you find slumber on tops of trees
And after all of this I still find it hard to breathe
I taught myself things you never did
You need a spine like I need new skin
But neither will ever happen

[Coro]
How dare you guilt me for not sticking around
As if you ever did for me?
I’ll leave you in the dark with a broken flashlight
You left me with a choice and a pretense

[Verso 2]
I will not follow in your footsteps
I’ll find a face to call my own
Because the mask you wear is all I’ve ever known

Consider this a repercussion of the actions which you were never properly punished for due to an overbearing demeanor brought on by your own self-awareness. Your credibility is a half-empty glass of salt water that I watched you spill over and over and over again. Go ahead, make me the bad guy

[Coro]
How dare you guilt me for not sticking around
As if you ever did for me?
I’ll leave you in the dark with a broken flashlight
You left me with a choice and a pretense

[Puente]
So I’ll take what strength I have left, if you could call it that
And I’ll give you time to reflect
Then you can call me back
(Then you can call me back)

[Coro]
How dare you guilt me for not sticking around
As if you ever did for me?
I’ll leave you in the dark with a broken flashlight
You left me with a choice and a pretense

[Conclusi�n]
You left me with a choice and a pretense
You left me with a choice and a pretense
