It was only just the other day,
We were the ones who said we'd never end up like them.
Now we are the ones pretending.

What if I say you mean the world to me?
Will you laugh in my face?
Or will you take me in your arms, and promise nothing will go wrong?

You were the one who said we were better off alone,
So why are you running back to me,
Pretending nothing ever happened?

And the tears burn my eyes,
As the thought of you and her drown my thoughts.

Don't you think if I was hurt,
Then I'd show it?
Well, I guess I'm just a good pretender.

Don't try to hide what you've done.
I saw what you said to her.

Don't say you don't want to lose me,
When you're the one who said we should move on.

Don't say you need me,
When you're doing just fine without me.

Don't say you love me,
Because I might just believe you again.

You're not the one crying, are you?
You're not the one who is hurting, are you?
You're not the one who can't get the thought of you and her together out of your mind, are you?
I didn't think so!

Yeah, maybe it'll take awhile to move on.
But don't worry.
I won't be around for you to notice if I have or not.

Give me a day,
A week,
A month,
A year,
Or even a lifetime to realize that letting you go might hurt,
But it's better this way.
