I can pretend for you that I mean every word said it's true That I'd probably rather be like a stranger in disguise And act as if nothing ever
Died or faded away, got lonelier with age And time isn't on our side
I'm sorry to take the thoughts that keep you awake And make it seem like they're overrated You certainly talk about me more when I fall down And when I get up my time is never enough Loved in front behind my back hated I guess it has everything to do with luck
I can defend the truth but I sound like white noise to my friends As I raise my glass to you In a stupor we speak words That couldn't be more honest
Lies we lived before are fights without a war I'm dead when it's in your head
I'm starting to think that all the buoys we sink Are cutting our chances of being saved I see that the end is all we have to let us know I'd like to believe in something more than a dream For when the will to be one has faded I guess the truth will soon be deceived My friend that isn't there My solitaire
