Shawn Stratte - Not Gonna Pretend

You know I can’t let you in
I’ve lost control over and over again
And I’m not gonna pretend
That I’m alright
She came and she went
And I know I haven’t been the same since
Can’t eat or sleep
I’ve stopped keeping time
I said I can’t let you in
I can’t let another woman under my skin
And I’m not gonna pretend
That I’m alright
And she said maybe you aren’t in the place you wanna be
Maybe your heart ain’t right
But I know you won’t see what you wanna see
If you don’t even try
Maybe you aren’t in the place you wanna be
Maybe you just need time
But life ain’t as long as it oughta be
How long do you wanna feel alive?
I said I can’t let you in
I’ve lost control over and over again
And I’m not gonna pretend
That I’m alright
But people go and they come in
And sometimes they take a piece of you with them
But you have got much more of you to give
