Pretender
Denim and salty hair
Walked in the room like you just don't care
You came out of nowhere
God, it was unfair
Gone in a flash like a blinking eye
I think of the past, and I don't know why
Baby, you're nowhere
But I still try to go there
I wish that we could run away together
Instead, I'm running out of ways to let you go
I'm scared I'll have to fake a smile forever
But honestly, I'll never be a great pretender
And now I know what it's like in hell
And seeing you out with someone else
Knowing you're happy
Knowing you have me
Oh, wrapped around your finger
Like a wedding ring I never got to give you
But it's fine
You'll only live forever in my mind
I wish that we could run away together
Instead, I'm running out of ways to let you go
I'm scared I'll have to fake a smile forever
But honestly, I'll never be a great pretender
Oh
Oh (I'll never be, I'll never be-)
Oh
Oh
I wish that we could run away together
Instead, I'm running out of ways to let you go
I'm scared I'll have to fake this smile forever
But honestly, honestly
I wish that we could run away together
Instead, I'm running out of ways to let you go
I'm scared I'll have to fake a smile forever
But honestly, I'll never be a great pretender
Walked in the room like you just don't care
You came out of nowhere
God, it was unfair
Gone in a flash like a blinking eye
I think of the past, and I don't know why
Baby, you're nowhere
But I still try to go there
I wish that we could run away together
Instead, I'm running out of ways to let you go
I'm scared I'll have to fake a smile forever
But honestly, I'll never be a great pretender
And now I know what it's like in hell
And seeing you out with someone else
Knowing you're happy
Knowing you have me
Oh, wrapped around your finger
Like a wedding ring I never got to give you
But it's fine
You'll only live forever in my mind
I wish that we could run away together
Instead, I'm running out of ways to let you go
I'm scared I'll have to fake a smile forever
But honestly, I'll never be a great pretender
Oh
Oh (I'll never be, I'll never be-)
Oh
Oh
I wish that we could run away together
Instead, I'm running out of ways to let you go
I'm scared I'll have to fake this smile forever
But honestly, honestly
I wish that we could run away together
Instead, I'm running out of ways to let you go
I'm scared I'll have to fake a smile forever
But honestly, I'll never be a great pretender
