How To Pretend

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Luka] Breathe in, breathe now You have to calm down Let me show you somewhere we could hide We can stay in here until sunrise [Verse 2: Luka] Moving forward Step by step, once more Follow my instructions, You'll be fine This will only hurt for a short time [Pre-Chorus: Luka] With promises of freedom I would never lie to you Only speaking the way you do too How great that it must be To walk outside and see Others just like you And not-- "I am not like you I can't do all that you do No matter how desperately I want to" [Chorus: Luka] When you look into my eyes, you see A mirage of something trustworthy I'm not your enemy, no more anxiety Though, you're right to be wary 'Cause I know how to pretend HOW TO PRETEND [Verse 3: Gumi] Breathe in, breathe out I'm lost in here now And of course I know that There's no way, There's no way I can turn back [Verse 2: Gumi] I'm left in the dark to play my part Follow every lie you feed me As they lead to more and more agony [Pre-Chorus: Gumi] Are we on the same team after all this time? Are we really feeling a pain of the same kind? Watching from the outside, You Can't see all the things I do You're a circus MONSTER and now's your cue "You were right When you said that 'we're not the same' Because unlike you I can feel pain" [Chorus: Gumi] When I look into your eyes, I see A facade, you are not trustworthy You are my enemy, faking your empathy I was right to be wary When you know how to pretend HOW TO PRETEND [Bridge: Luka] When you look into my eyes, you see A mirage of something trustworthy I'm not your enemy, no more anxiety Though, you're right to be wary 'Cause I know... You're no good at pretending [Outro: Luka and Gumi] Come dance and we'll be prismatic (I'm not falling for all your tricks) Let's put on a show before the curtain falls (Before the curtain falls I won't take a bow) It's time, our finale's now (This mangled freak show is where we end it all) Is where we start it all
