Tears slide slowly down my face,
I bet you can see them,
And the lines they trace.
You just don’t care,
Just walk on by,
You pretend I’m not there,
I pretend I don’t cry.
Pretend you don’t see me,
You will anyway,
It’s the same old line,
Just a different day.
I’ll pretend I can’t feel,
The hurt and pain,
I’ll try to become numb,
And cold like rain.
You pretend you don’t see the tears,
That I cry,
I’ll forget my fears,
And pretend that I lied.
No, it’s not true,
That’s what ill say,
Then you can smile and nod,
And just walk away.
Even though I lied,
You will know the truth,
But what you do,
Is up to you.
My tears have turned icy,
I’m losing reason to cry,
I’ve lost reasons to like you,
You know that was a lie.
