Pretend To Forget

[Verse 1]

Now I play it cool

Treat you the same

Pretend it's part and plan of my elaborate game

When, in time, you come around

Ignore my youth

I'll have gotten over you

To tell the truth

[Verse 2]

I keep telling myself

That yours ain't a special pace

Your trails aren't familiar

We just work in the same place

The preferential treatment that I gave before

Exactly the kind of shit I can't do no more

[Chorus]

Save myself the headaches

Prеtend to forget

'Cause, if I can't rеmember

I cannot regret

If I shut my mind down

I can't reminisce

Until it's gone, the memory of the man I missed

[Verse 3]

However strange it is for you

It's harder for me

To work with and around you so impersonally

And the longer I ignore it

The less I'll be concealing

I won't want you anymore

Or have to hide my feeling
