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.
