I'll pretend

Right here in front of me

The way you stand

How you smile right now

Will I be able to see them again?

That I do not know.

Because when time flees

My heart and your memories

Both will be broken.

And I will pretend

That we never were that good of friends.

Turning on my cell phone

I’ll see your numbers

Which would never call me again

Nor would response if I ever send a text.

Only pains would remain

And who know what will be next.

So I’ll delete your numbers

And I will pretend

They were never there – ever.

I will walk by your rooms

And see the same doors

At the same locations

But there’ll be no more

The posters of the environment.

And if I ever knock

Strangers would come out

And I will pretend

That I am not shocked

And not want to shout

Anything out loud.

Everything is done

Everyone has left

But I’m not alone

Carrying on

A whole new step.

-->

Like that, I will pretend

Till the day I reach my end.
