Lights - Pretend lyrics

rate me

Once in a while I act like a child to feel like a kid again

It gets like a prison in the body I'm living in

'Cause everyones watching and quick to start talking,

I'm losing my innocence

Wish I were a little girl without the weight of the world

It would be nice to start over again

Before we were men

I'd give, I'd bend, let's play pretend

Remember the times we had soda for wine,

and we got by on gratitude

The worst they could do to you was check your attitude

Yeha when fights were for fun, we had water in guns

And a place we could call our own

How we lost hold of home I'll never know

It would be nice to start over again

Before we were men

I'd give, I'd bend, let's play pretend

And when it's the end

Our lives will make sense

We'll love, we'll bend, let's play pretend

It's not going to be long, before we're all gone,

with nothing to show for them

Stop taking lives, come on let's all grow up again

It would be nice to start over again

Before we were men

I'd give, I'd bend, let's play pretend

And when it's the end

Our lives will make sense

We'll love, we'll bend, let's play pretend
