In the pretend world
We all are very awake
In the pretend world
We all look sterile and fake
In this atmosphere
We all could chatter for days
In the pretend world
We never admit our mistakes

But in the real world
Were hiding alone and ashamed
And we cant live while
Because were addicted to pain
You see I cannot feel this
No matter how you try
In the real world
We cant deny

In the pretend world
We gaze into empty eyes
We have to amuse ourselves
With adultery tales and white lies

But in the real world
Where fools tormented for sport
We just stitch up our mouths
So we cant admit or retort
You see I cannot say this
Please don't ask me why
In the real world
We cant deny

You see I cannot feel this
No matter how you try
In the real world
We cant deny

You see I cannot say this
Please don't ask me why
In the real world
We cant deny

In my pretend world
We all are very awake
In this atmosphere
We all look starstruck and vague
You see I never loved you
No matter how you tried

In the real world
There's no goodbye
