Pretending (Demo)

[Verse 1] In this masquerade, she can't feel the pain Cover up her heart with a little paint While he's pulling out a flask to hide it all away There's nothing left to say [Pre-Chorus] He knows that they're drowning She hopes that there's still something left Let go now 'cause he's leaving [Chorus] But she'd be fine pretending things were alright Even while it's ending keep it inside She can feel them bending All their love is pending so what is she defending? Even when she says she'll open her eyes All her words are empty when she denies That she can feel them bending All their love is pending so what is she defending? But she'd be fine pretending (She'd be fine) [Verse 2] Step into the light, to look him in the eye Feeling so exposed, she tries to stay composed But every little fight and every little lie Is impossible to hide [Pre-Chorus] He knows that they're drowning She hopes that there's still something left Let go now 'cause he's leaving [Chorus] But she'd be fine pretending things were alright Even while it's ending keep it inside She can feel them bending All their love is pending, so what is she defending? Even when she says she'll open her eyes All her words are empty when she denies That she can feel them bending All their love is pending, so what is she defending? But she'd be fine preten— (She'd be fine) [Bridge] I hate to watch her hurt, I know it isn't right But she can find the courage to leave it all behind I wish I had the words to help her realize That there is just no way to bring this back to life He knows that they're drowning [Chorus] But she'd be fine pretending things were alright Even while it's ending keep it inside She can feel them bending All their love is pending, so what is she defending? Even when she says she'll open her eyes All her words are empty when she denies That she can feel them bending All their love is pending, so what is she defending? But she'd be fine preten— She'd be fine
