I Must Pretend

[Underground_Network]

Fate gave me light
And the light wasn't
Bright enough
To sustain life (X2)

So I must move on
Start again
And pretend
That I like what I see (when I don't)

So I will just go ahead
And take one step forward
Then take two steps backward
And say I've progressed.

Its like screaming murder
When you hear a gunshot
Go off in your head,
No one is dead, no no one is dead.

So I must move on
Start again
And pretend
That I like what I see (when I don't)

And oh in the end
Its like childhood dreams
They get crushed...
Its irreparable damage, incurable disease.

Its spreading like crazy
When I want it to stop,
It just restarts,
It just won't end.

So I must move on
Start again
And pretend
That I like what I see (when I don't)

Oh you aren't helping
No you aren't helping
So please go away
Today's not your day (to drive me insane)

So I must move on
Start again
And pretend
That I like what I see (when I don't)
(Or do I?)
