Sometimes I wish that we could all forget
Your figure fades into a silhouette
But I hear you breathing
I’m done believing
[Pre-Chorus 1]
We’re painting portraits but the canvas is blank
If this life is a gift then who do we thank?
You’re desperate for the answer
It eats at you like cancer
[Chorus]
Tonight won’t ever end
Can we pretend, pretend, pretend?
We’ll paint the walls instead
And I’ll pretend, pretend, pretend again
[Verse 2]
Your head is filled with unproven thoughts
Twisting theories into bigger knots
And I feel you dreaming
You’re done believing
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Tried to avoid this, but I’m weak to the bone
My inner compass points me to the unknown
But I still keep running faster
Yeah, someday I’ll find the answer
[Chorus]
Tonight won’t ever end
Can we pretend, pretend, pretend?
We’ll paint the walls instead
And I’ll pretend, pretend, pretend again
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Pretend, pretend, pretend
We'll paint the walls instead
And I’ll pretend, pretend, pretend again
[Bridge]
I wanted to know you
But I still don't know myself
I've got so much to show you
Won't you show me the way?
[Chorus]
Tonight won't ever end
Can we pretend, pretend, pretend?
I don't want this to end
So I'll pretend, pretend, pretend again
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Pretend, pretend, pretend
Tonight will never end
Can we pretend, pretend, pretend instead?
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)
(Ooh, ahh, oh)
[Outro]
Lights turned low, lights turned low
Cause I don't want to see this go
So can I just pretend, pretend, pretend instead?
