Lilly Wood & The Prick - Let’s Not Pretend

I've been spending quite some time trying to fix the way I am
but chasing all the bad don't make it good
Even when I was a child, I never trusted anyone
And trying to change me now will get you nowhere
I try to think of this and he tries to handle that
And we try to get along and we get nowhere
I try to be polite and he tries to be nice
And it's all a big joke and I hate that

Let's not pretend
That things are easy to do
With a fake smile on your face
You try to see me through
Let's not pretend It didn't happen
that's not true
With a fake smile on your face
You try to play me for a fool

You sayd his hands were tied
But I see him hanging on
To a bunch of white lies and hold's back
There was once a time when I almost believed
We'd crawl out how stupid is that ?
I tried to be smart and
Pretend that I'm strong
But I'm as weak as a child, as weak as a child
He says that he's fine and I wish that was a lie
How selfsh is that?

Let's not pretend
That things are easy to do
With a fake smile on your face
You try to see me through
Let's not pretend It didn't happen
that's not true
With a fake smile on your face
You try to play me for a fool

Let's not pretend
That things are easy to do
With a fake smile on your face
You try to see me through
Let's not pretend It didn't happen
that's not true
With a fake smile on your face
You try to play me for a fool

Let's not pretend
That things are easy to do
With a fake smile on your face
You try to see me through
Let's not pretend It didn't happen
that's not true
With a fake smile on your face
You try to play me for a fool
