Pretend You'Re With Me - Becoming Undone

(Spoken) Are you having a bae day?
Are you having it your way?
You don't show any consideration towards me, going astray
I'm going to phade away into the night, since you aren't my sun-shining day
Dismay is what you make me feel
You think everything's not a big deal
But you'll feel my rain of pain someday
You'll be on track on my torture train one way or another 
The sky is the color of blue and gray 
My past, present and future isn't a mighty blur, getting over the love flu and becoming mature 
Lord, be my cure to this disease of worry please...
Ease my mind from the twists and turns of everyday life...hear my prayer and pleas

Verse 1: In my wildest dreams,
I cuddle with you close
Breaking by the seams
It hits me that everything goes
Something in the way you move makes me inspired 
Stay away from the ugliness in my soul, the beauty expired
No longer desired...
So tired and wired differently...no longer admired
Phading out of your vision
You and I are running out of the time 
I plead on my knees, don't take me away till my job is done 
I'm only human, committing a selfish crime...this time, a valueless dime

Pre-chorus: Before me, I see blemishes of the blues
Come back, I want to place my feet in your shoes 
Scarred for life
Wishing for a better tomorrow
Living with strife
Sipping in childhood sorrow

Chorus: Entertain me, pretend you're with me 
I'm over you, pretend you're without me
Brain going insane, bad luck on my tongue 
My eyes are enlightened, my door bell rung 
Don't be ashamed of being who you are
Everyone will know you as a champion in heart
You're the best thing that has happened to me, my shining star
Allow me to push away the sinister death cart 

Verse 2: Those three sweet words ring like a doorbell 
Becoming undone, becoming undone but oh well
It's you and I, torn apart
So say goodbye...take heart...I gave you my heart but in return you tore it apart from the start 
You're the iceberg that broke me in pieces
You're the urge that I loathe with all my heart
You're the dream, dressed as a nightmare 
You're the shattered self esteem when I look in the mirror...
I crash down on the floor
Knives in your eyes pierce my own
Is there any hope in store?
I tried calling you, but you ignored my call...answer your phone 

Pre-chorus: Before me, I see blemishes of the blues
Come back, I want to place my feet in your shoes 
Scarred for life
Wishing for a better tomorrow
Living with strife
Sipping in childhood sorrow

Chorus: Entertain me, pretend you're with me 
I'm over you, pretend you're without me
Brain going insane, bad luck on my tongue 
My eyes are enlightened, my door bell rung 
Don't be ashamed of being who you are
Everyone will know you as a champion in heart
You're the best thing that has happened to me, my shining star
Allow me to push away the sinister death cart 

Verse 3: Cut it out...stop pouting like a child, recovering from a sugar high 
It ain't cute...the way you're acting is threatening me
Feeling like I'm cornered...I don't know why I fell for your lie
I'm in vain...the day of our lives was a yesterday's fantasy 
My solitude's solace is my haven 
I'm the heavenly dove and you, the hellish raven 
Give me a moment to breathe in and out 
You hurt my feelings...you know what I'm talking about
I had enough of you, playing the victim 
You were all I ever loved, my unique whim 
I lost all self-control and patience, 
Starting a fight, showing no mercy or innocence 
Pray for deliverance...
While I seek repentance
I will remain in your remembrance 
Fenced in by your ungratefulness...show some reverence and considerance 

Pre-chorus: Before me, I see blemishes of the blues
Come back, I want to place my feet in your shoes  
Scarred for life
Wishing for a better tomorrow
Living with strife
Sipping in childhood sorrow

Chorus: Entertain me, pretend you're with me 
I'm over you, pretend you're without me
Brain going insane, bad luck on my tongue 
My eyes are enlightened, my door bell rung 
Don't be ashamed of being who you are
Everyone will know you as a champion in heart
You're the best thing that has happened to me, my shining star
Allow me to push away the sinister death cart 

Verse 4: We are a different story, written in different time periods
We aren't on the same page...it reduces me to utter rage
I see you, envying the fact that you hang 'round your favorite buds
I wait for the appropriate time to say that I want to engage 
In this love affair,
But you are a game of truth or dare 
I dare you to love me unconditionally 
Pretend to be with me frankly...truly...
Don't scream at me or start a riot with me again,
My one and only everything
