Rosemary - pretend

Battery lost
Or is the power off
It's all the same
I've won the game
Level eight unlocked

Fake it till you make it?

Look, it's not all talk
I faked it and I got
To a place
Where the taste
Of you is an afterthought

Was it for the plot
That I let myself rot
And whither away
Shrivel up and decay
But I did it! I forgot!

You were
Impossible to erase
Always leaving marks up on the board
But now when I think of your face
It somehow got so easy to ignore

I'm not playing pretend. No, I'm not playing pretend.
I'm not playing 'bout how I'm not playing, I'm really not playing pretend!
THIS IS JUST THE END. I'm not playing pretend.
I'm not playing 'bout how I'm not playing, I'm really not playing pretend!

Now I hear your name
And my heartbeat doesn't change
Indifference
Has me convinced
I was deranged

To think you were
Impossible to erase
Always leaving marks up on the board
But now when I think of your face
It somehow got so easy to ignore

I'm not playing pretend. No, I'm not playing pretend.
I'm not playing 'bout how I'm not playing, I'm really not playing pretend!
THIS IS JUST THE END. I'm not playing pretend.
I'm not playing 'bout how I'm not playing, I'm really not playing pretend!

Survival was my default, I let it take the wheel
To get out alive I had to lie 'till it was real
I grieved all seven, or pretended, but it just now hit
I don't know what it is I made, but I know that I did make it!

Battery lost
Or is the power off
It's all the same
I've won the game
Level eight unlocked

GAME OVER
