《Pretend》的歌詞如下：
I pretend
That everything is alright
I pretend
Just like I always do
When everything inside
Is screaming out for me to run
I pretend
I'm strong enough to stay
I pretend
That I don't need a friend
When every breath I take
Feels like it's holding my breath too
But now I'm standing here
With my head held high
Telling myself that I won't cry
'Cause I'm strong enough to try
And I won't let them see
How I feel inside
'Cause I know that they won't understand
How hard it is to Pretend
I pretend
That I'm alright today
I pretend
That tomorrow will be fine
When every second I awake
Feels like it's getting further away
But now I'm standing here
With my head held high
Telling myself that I won't cry
'Cause I'm strong enough to try
And I won't let them see
How I feel inside
'Cause I know that they won't understand
How hard it is to Pretend
To keep it together
When all I feel is shattered glass
Trying to cover up the cracks with lies
Trying to make them all believe in Pretend
And every time you fall apart, you fall apart again.
But now you're standing here, with your head held high.
Telling yourself that you won't cry, you won't let them see.
How you feel inside, 'cause you know that they won't understand.
How hard it is to Pretend.
