Waking up and no one’s home I don’t believe it I turn my television on So I don’t feel alone
I’m talking to my dog Because she can understand me And just to hear a human voice Inside these walls
I do these tricks as a day routine To ease the pain, to not feel a thing I do my act like I’m born for this I do my best to hide my tears
…every day I’m pretending That I don’t miss you at all That I don’t miss spending nights underneath your armpit Like a little kid lying down besides his mommy And that I don’t miss your kiss …it’s as simple as this
I’m walking slowly So you won’t know the weight I’m wearing And I don’t show my face To reveal the pain I’m bearing with
And I rarely call my friends It’s kind of a sixth sense Because they will see my hollow soul And see through my defense
I do these tricks as a day routine To ease the pain, to not feel a thing I do my act like I’m born for this I do my best to hide my tears
…every day I’m pretending That I don’t miss you at all That I don’t miss spending nights underneath your armpit Like a little kid lying down besides his mommy And that I don’t miss your kiss …it’s as simple as this
Pretending that I just don’t see you When I close my eyes Pretending that I just don’t hear your voice When no one is around
Pretending that I don’t remember The smell of your skin And every day I am pretending That I’m not praying
That I don’t miss you at all That I don’t miss spending nights underneath your armpit Like a little kid lying down besides his mommy And that I don’t miss your kiss …it’s as simple as this
