There's no one here to see me
Why don't I go inside
Pretend there's really nothing
I'm trying not to hide

I'm a pretender
That's all that's left for me
I'm a pretender
That's all there is now

I'll go inside and close the door
And I will be alone
Pretend it's not just something
I can't handle on my own

I'm a pretender
That's all that's left for me
I'm a pretender
That's all there is now

When my home is dark and empty
And I have gone away
Pretend that I was never here
There's no one here to say

I'm a pretender
That's all that's left for me
I'm a pretender
That's all there is now
