You gave me a wing I could crawl under
Made myself hard to find
We built a wall against all others
And I kept your heart with mine
We had a dream I feared we'd wake from
So, I kept my eyes shut tight
But I felt you stir and all came undone
Now, I have no alibi

When I'm asked what I did when
Your world was getting bigger
When I'm asked why I hid when
Your world was getting bigger
Can we just pretend, can we just pretend
That nothing's lost or broken?
Can we just pretend this is not the end
It's only mixed emotions?
Can we just pretend, can we just pretend
Nothing's broken?

Did I hold your hand a bit too tightly?
Smother the only light?
Did I push away your love so blindly?
There is no quick reply
When I'm asked what I did when
Your world was getting bigger
When I'm asked why I hid when
Your world was getting bigger

Can we just pretend, can we just pretend
That nothing's lost or broken?
Can we just pretend this is not the end
It's only mixed emotions?
Can we just pretend, can we just pretend
Nothing's broken?

I can't let go, feel I'm spiraling out of control
I can't let go of the only love I want to know
The only love I want to know
But now I see you're just a ghost
And I'm spiraling out of control

Can we just pretend, can we just pretend
That nothing's lost or broken?
Can we just pretend this is not the end
It's only mixed emotions?
Can we just pretend, can we just pretend
Nothing's broken?

I can't let go of the only love I want to know
Can we just pretend, can we just pretend
Nothing's broken?
Can we just pretend, can we just pretend
Nothing's broken?
