Pretend

I know that you are angry
And think I should feel bad
But I gave you everything
And shared anything I had

I know you say I'm angry
And maybe this is true
But I was never angry
For something you didn't do

'Cause you take, take, take
You think nobody would suspect someone naive
But you're just as fake
And self-entitled as the next girl on the street, oh

You were my friend
But from a hallway distance
You never let me in
So how are we friends?

And if I put you down
Then why'd you stick around
I think I figured it out
Everyone should know it now

I know that you are sad
But so is everyone
We all feel like the world owes us
For everything it's done

I know you think I'm crazy
But just as much as you
'Cause I know that inside your brain
You're smarter than what you do

'Cause you take, take, take
You think nobody would suspect someone naive
But you're just as fake
And as unhappy as the next girl on the street, oh

You were my friend
But from a hallway distance
You never let me in
So how are we friends?

And if I put you down
Then why'd you stick around
I think I figured it out
Everyone should know it now

I was just walking down
Thinking about you
And how we found one another
Is it too late for the truth

You were my friend
But from a hallway distance
You never let me in
So how are we friends?

And if I put you down
Then why'd you stick around
I think I figured it out
Everyone should know it now

Look at your friends
And everything they've given
They're in the palm of your hand
Don't pretend you're innocent
