Play Pretend

by Peter Jessy

lyrics

All my friends are growing old
They got real jobs and fancy clothes
But I still feel like I’m a child
I guess I’ll grow up with time

So I play pretend
Gotta fake it till the end
Play pretend
And tomorrow
Do it all again

My parents ask if I’m alright
I lie and say that I’m fine
But truth is, mom I’m terrified
I can't remember a night I haven’t cried

I can't sleep at night
I think of how I’m wasting my life
I think I’m losing my mind

I just play pretend

I play pretend
Gotta fake it till the end
Play pretend
And tomorrow

I play pretend
Gotta fake it till the end
Play pretend
And tomorrow
Do it all again
