Pretend

Let's play a game of hide and go seek
I'll hide my feelings for you
and you find me amoung the bushes,
seeking for an escape from my head.

This game won't work
It's too many rules on such a short day
let's leave our lives,
run away
This game is not near enough
to fill the space
and unlike you
it's too easy to erase.

Let's play a game called Tomorrow never comes
I'll sit and wait for the world to brighten
and the wind to howl
you'll travel to the furthest corners of the world
searching for your soul
We'll meet up again
on a day you'll never know.

This game won't work
It's too many rules on such a short day
let's leave our lives,
run away
This game is not near enough
to fill the space
and unlike you
it's too easy to erase.

Let's play a game
where we don't give up, don't let go, don't hold back
We'll just hold on
Wear our hearts on our sleeves
and pray it goes the way that love intends.
 
This game may work
but it's too much to do on this sunshiney day
and too comfortable here to runaway.
This game will start,
but never end
it's too much to try and pretend.
