She'Ll Pretend

One day I'll burn bright Their faces, all full of fright - Do you feel better now? Just look, It isn't hard to see. You'll watch As she falls to the ground - Do you feel like a man? Will you laugh At the pain that was brought? She'll lie to you - Say it doesn't hurt But, She'll know it does. Will you watch her burn? Do you care. She's breaking down. Everyday it's going down. But she'll play off That she's strong. Face down in the dirt... When will you Give up? Will you move on? She never will. Will you forgive her? She'll pretend to forget you. She's finally had enough. Until her pain goes away She'll pretend your nothing Lost, gone away.
