Game of Pretend

Don't know where you've been today

Some kind of trip real far away

Did you see the sun in your sky?

Have the wind in your sails?

Did a wolf run by?

Were you chasing its tail?

Loose ends shine brightly on your screen

And now we're here, caught in the between

Such a game of pretend

Got in over your head

You tried to live a million lives and forgot the one you had

Now you paint the town red

Sleep it off in her bed

I hope you can convince yourself it's the life you never had

Bittersweet yesterdays

Squeezing little lies into my lemonade

I gave you plenty of shots

To roll the dice

And every time you tried

You ended up throwing snake eyes

Loose ends tied nicely in a seam

And now we're here, caught in the between

Such a game of pretend

Got in over your head

You tried to live a million lives and forgot the one you had

Now you paint the town red

Sleep it off in her bed

I hope you can convince yourself it's the life you never had

I hope you can convince yourself it's the life you never had

Ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ooh

Ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ooh

Ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ooh

Ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ooh

Ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ooh

Ah, ah, ah

Ah, ah, ooh
