lyrics

And I was tired of, all this hiding
Didn't know which way to turn
And I was tired of, all this lying
Something, bu now I should have learned

Had no right, to be jealous
I knew I, was only second best
Makes me feel just worthless

In the end
I don't wanna pretend

And I was dreaming of, just a ghostly mirage
Thought I could reach out and touch
But it wasn't real, like my broken bandage
It's time to let those wounds really heal

And I was feeling just helpless
I knew I, was only second best
Makes me feel just worthless

In the end
I don't wanna pretend

And I know, i could see your face again
I know I said I'd always love you
But I don't wanna pretend

And I was tired of, all this crying
Seems my tears have gone to ground
And I was tired of, all this trying
Something by now I should have found

Had no right, to be jealous
I knew I, was only second best
Makes me feel just worthless

In the end
I don't wanna pretend
