Follow the carpet to the wall
Watch the pictures start to fall
There's nothing left here worth defending


Now we're pretending
Just pretending

It's ugly but it's true

Hey, something tells me you're still here

Come on in pull up a chair
It's complicated and depressing


Now we're pretending
Just pretending
It's ugly but it's true

Oh, it's ugly but it's true

Yeah, I'm working on borrowed time

I know I've said this before
Dancing round in my head
Rather be hopeful instead

Got lots of time 'fore I'm dead
Yeah, got lots of time 'fore I'm dead


And until then it's not too late
I ate it all licked off the plate
Lies on repeat, continue playing


Now we're pretending
Just pretending

It's ugly but it's true
Yeah, it's ugly but it's true
I know it's true
