📝 Pretending Lyrics:

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 its 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... (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 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 its 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... (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 its 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... She'd be fine

Some say it’s painful to wait for someone.
Some say it’s painful to forget someone.
But the worst pain comes when you don’t know whether to wait or forget....

[HolographicStudio]

I imagine

She walks into the ballroom. Her dress is an elegant symphony of colors, her delicate face hidden by a mask of similar attire.

Her silent footsteps set echoes through the hearts of those whose eyes fall upon her. Her grace is that of an angel and her beauty like no other.

Her hidden eyes are downcast as she makes her way across the floor, towards the center.

There, she dances alone, spinning like that of an elegant flower, her dress standing out among the simple. Eyes are on her, but she is oblivious,

she just keeps dancing,

Still dancing,

Always dancing.




*Forever dancing.*

[katp]

Even when our hearts are being tore apart we still smile

[Juliana-ujbi]

The smile is on my face everyday. Laughing with friends, surviving high school. But when I’m alone, listening to sad songs, the emotions spill.

In this masquerade, she can't feel the pain

Let go now cause he's leaving
But she'd be fine pretending
Things were alright, even while its 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) x10 (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 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 its ending keep it inside

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

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) x10
She'd be fine

Some people: "Their"
Some other people: "There"
Smart people: "They're"

Nightcore Eiden: "THERE'RE"

[Shibidmibid]

She is pretending like she doesn't miss you, and you are pretending like you don't care.

[frederick]

Dude this just threw me back a couple of years

[bananajoe]

Imagine ~

A girl who is in a world, where it is cruel, but she keeps *pretending* like it's safe. A boy, wishes he found the right words to tell her about the world.
One day, the world was so cruel, that the girl died, as if she could still be *pretending as if things were alright*

The boy was devasted, but saw a video of her explaining on how she could feel herself *bending* as if the she could break any moment. She even said that she'll open her *eyes* for the truth. But, she couldn't handle it yet further. *She pretended her knife was a light to a better life, she kept pretending, to the fact that she broke in that very moment*

He told the world about this, but the world was always cruel, *no matter what, the girl kept pretending* he thought. Just so she couldn't see the truth.




I don't even know why I wrote this... But this song is about at least a handful of people who have been in the same situation. *They're pretending it's all alright*



Someone help me, my fingers hurt, and so do my sweaty eye balls. I keep trying to keep my tears in as I imagine someone trying to live a perfect life but they're still pretending. I am so depressed at this point lol 😂

Friend: Who are you dressing for this halloween?
Me: I think of myself
Friend: Why?
Me: Because ... I'm already wrapped in a disguise of lies ...

[xxxdcxxx]

[vickythebunny]

I’m always pretending to be happy! And I always have to bc the pain never goes away...and I don’t have anything

[coolerqueen]

Pretending, huh?.... Yes, that's the right word.. *Pretending* to be happy, *Pretending* that everything's alright and *Pretending* that you're not in pain and you're not suffering, even though you are.... If someone is depressed or feels alone and is *Pretending* to be happy, please talk to me, I know how it feels and I hope I can make you better ❤

[kenny]

Ok finally the notifications are back! Thanks for the advice! This is adorable and amazing!

[mialisovska]

No one has broken me, I just broke myself.... i just always have these really negative thoughts about myself how I'm not good enough to anyone that i love... i feel like I dont deserve anyone.... I think everyone judges me... I think everyone hates me... I think everyone wants me gone... is that true? Would everyone be happy if I didnt exist? I have a good family.... but I feel like they are keeping something from me, are they? I can never sleep...every little thing keeps me awake.... I always fake my emotions, I always fake being happy...






I'm sorry you had to read this, I just really wanted to let my true feelings out..

Edit: got my heart broken now :)

[cluelesskiller]

This is a sad but beautiful song. This song has a very sad meaning. No one needs to pretend. Sometimes it's hard to and we have to pretend, but soon enough everything will be fine. I love this song. The picture and clips are perfect. Keep it up.
