Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Open your eyes if you can't see what's going on
I can't deny that everything's weird, and something's wrong
Like you're stranded in the ocean, tryna overcome emotion
Waiting for a savor to rescue you
[Chorus]
Pretending everything's alright, I ain't naive
Pretending everything is fine, be real with me
[Verse 2]
The sky is falling down, and everyone's eyes are on the ground
But I miss the news, now they never mind truth, never mind me and you
I don't know who allowed it, what can I do about it
But patiently wait for the dam to break?
[Chorus]
Pretending everything's alright, but I ain't naive
And pretending everything is fine, be real with me
[Verse 3]
And I don't know where we go from here, but I just wanna wish it away
And every now and then, the thought comes creeping in
We ain't here to stay
We ain't here to stay
[Bridge]
You know I've got a lot to say
You've probably heard it all
We only wanna make a play
When our back's against the wall
[Chorus]
Pretending everything's alright, but I ain't naive
And pretending everything is fine, be real with me
[Outro]
And be real with me
Be real with me
Be real with me
