I'll Pretend

I'll pretend I'm okay
I'll fake it all
Just like you did

It's my turn now
The ball is in my court
Take it or leave it

I'll be much happier this way
I know
My eyes glisten from the tears inside
They can't be let out

I can't show my weakness
I can't show my fears or pain

It seems to help for you
You get by just fine
So I'll try the same
We'll see if it works
