Stop Pretending Lyrics

If for just one night
We could stop pretending
That we're never ending
'Cause soon I'll have to goMy biggest fear in life is
That the universe works
I guess to be blessed
We have to be cursed firstWell, obviously waiting
On honesty hurts worse
Than arguing over
How much the dirt's worthIf that type of magic
When creative spurts burst
Can turn to a flat line
From hospitalized bird chirpsWould you line up with me
To be the first cursed
To prove to this nervous earth
The universe worksFor just one night
Could we just stop pretending
That we're never ending

'Cause soon I'll have to goThese days are coming
To an end my friend
So can we just stop pretending
I'm here to stayAll right, all right the universe works
Had enough with the crisis
I'm sure that all our heads
Have been stuck in vice gripsWhen advice gets repetitive
That's because it is
So we should stop pretending
We haven't heard it before thisSo who ever you share life
With whether it be
Your lover, parent
Grandparent, sister or brotherLet them know
To make sure they knew
That they were appreciated
For taking on the challenge of youFor just one night
Could we just stop pretending
That we're never ending
'Cause soon I'll have to goThese days are coming
To an end my friend
So can we just stop pretending
I'm here to stayTry, try
Get to the other side
Rise, rise
Watch your halo grow in sizeI, I hope to God
That I will never be given
Another personality
That I'll have to resignFor just one night
Could we just stop pretending
That we're never ending
'Cause soon I'll have to go'Cause you didn't cherish
All those times we had
You find yourself feeling sad
'Cause I've gone away, let's goFor just one night
Could we just stop pretending
That we're never ending
'Cause soon I'll have to goThese days are coming
To an end my friend
So can we just stop pretending
I'm here to stayFor just one night
Could we just stop pretending
That we're never ending
'Cause soon I'll have to goThese days are coming
To an end my friend
So can we just stop pretending
I'm here to stay, let's goTry, try
Get to the other side
Rise, rise
Watch your halo grow in sizeI, I hope to God
That I will never be given
Another personality
That I'll have to resign
