Lyrics
Am I awake?
I just can’t tell anymore
I start my day
Just like the one before
You want to pretend
We’re OK with everything
That you didn’t just pull
My world out from under me
Let’s make believe
This isn’t happening
Let’s make it easy
Believe
In some made up story
Don’t let the truth make a mess of our worry
Let’s make believe
These childish games
Are so tired and mean
Nothing gets fixed
With those gifts you bring
You want to pretend
We don’t mean anything
Until you’re down
Reaching for something you need
Seems that your old ways
Are starting to run out of time
But you keep smiling
As we’re waving goodbye
Let’s make believe
