Pretending Lyrics - Utopia

I was right the first time 

But I outguessed myself 

You sympathized so sweetly 

When you sent me to hell 

What have I got to complain for 

Had to throw myself overboard 

Like to see that my dues are paid 

It's just the way I was made 

And when I cry, I was burning inside 

You're out there pretending 

And though I lie, I had nothing to hide 

You're the one who's pretending

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

I live in anticipation 

Things that never occurred 

Turned my back to the loving ones 

On the strength of your word 

What's the answer I'm looking for 

You mix your meanings with metaphors 

Glass bricks and a ten foot wall 

You really don't care at all 

And when I came to relieve all the pain 

You were somewhere pretending 

And I'm still here, and it's still just as clear 

That you're only pretending 

Photos 

I believe in believing 

And I hope that there's still hope for me 

'cause I need to be needing 

And you're free to be free as you please 

But I'm not the kind 

Who can live with life 

And I never could 

'cause I'm just no good at pretending 

What's the truth after all this time 

Is it your perception or is it mine 

Sometimes you're better off alone 

You can't get blood from a stone 

And while you cry, I'll be laughing inside 

'cause I know you're pretending 

Look me straight in the eye 

When I tell you good bye 

'cause I won't be pretending 

You could beg me and fall down on your knees 

But you'd just be pretending 

Maybe someday you'll have something to say 

And you won't be pretending
