Alec Benjamin - Pretending

In this masquerade she can't feel the pain
Cover up her heart with a little paint
While he's pulling out a flask to hide it all away
There's nothing left to say
He knows that they're drowning
She hopes that there's still something left
Let go now cause he's leaving

But she'd be fine pretending
Things were alright
even while it's ending keep it inside
She can feel them bending
All their love is pending
so what is she defending?
Even when she says she'll open her eyes
All her words are empty when she denies
But she can feel them bending
All their love is pending
so what is she defending?
But she'd be fine prete eh eh
eh eh eh eh
She'd be fine

Step into the light
to look him in the eye
Feeling so exposed,
she tries to stay composed
But every little fight
and every little lie
is impossible to hide

He knows that there're drowning
She hopes that there's still something left
Let go now cause he's leaving
But she'd be fine pretending
Things were alright
even while it's ending keep it inside
She can feel them bending
All their love is pending
so what is she defending?
Even when she says she'll open her eyes
All her words are empty when she denies

But she can feel them bending
All their love is pending
so what is she defending?
But she'd be fine prete eh eh
eh eh eh eh
She'd be fine

I hate to watch her hurt
I know it isn't right
But she can find
the courage to leave it all behind
I wish I had the words to help her realize
That there is just no way to bring this back to life

He knows that they're drowning
But she'd be fine pretending
things were alright
even while it's ending keep it inside
She can feel them bending
All their love is pending
So what is she defending?
Even when she says she'll open her eyes
All the words are empty when she denies
But she can feel them bending
all their love is pending
so what is she defending?
But she'd be fine prete eh eh
eh eh eh eh
She'd be fine
