You say that I'm not nice to you
But you ain't either
You called up a psych
And told me to meet her
The love we once had
Has turned into pain
The only reason you're still here is personal gain
And I pretend that I love you
I pretend that I need you
I pretend that you are everything to me
I pretend I'm not lying
I pretend you're not crying
I pretend that you're shrouded in mystery
And everytime I look at you I just see misery
And no matter what I do you never let me be
I wanna run away but I know it's too late
I'm just gonna have to stay and suffer my fate
And I pretend that I love you
I pretend that I need you
I pretend that you are everything to me
I pretend I'm not lying
I pretend you're not crying
I pretend that you're shrouded in mystery
Tell me what I'm supposed to do
When your emotions aren't true
Tell me what I'm supposed to feel
When everything you say isn't real
Tell me who I'm supposed to be when there is nothing left of me
Is it all just gonna end because all that I do is
And I pretend that I love you
I pretend that I need you
I pretend that you are everything to me
I pretend I'm not lying
I pretend you're not crying
I pretend that you're shrouded in mystery
