Play Pretend

We talk all day, yeah, same old vibe
Like spinning wheels in overdrive
You hit me up just to kill some time
But I see through it, it’s all a lie

You say we’re chill, just friends, no more
But you keep staring like you want the floor
Why fake a game when we both can feel
There’s something real, let’s cut the deal

I don’t wanna play pretend, nah, it’s getting kinda lame
When we both know, it’s more than just a game
Why we frontin’, why we hiding? It’s breaking inside
We can’t stay cool when the fire’s too high

Oh, you and I, it’s more than friends
Stop denying what won’t end
Caught in a loop, we can’t defend
So why we still play pretend?
Oh, you and I, it’s way too tense
Every glance just screams suspense
Caught in a loop, we can’t defend
So why we still play pretend?

You laugh it off, but it’s all too clear
We’re dancing close, but filled with fear
I feel the heat when you’re next to me
But you keep dodging what we could be

I don’t wanna play pretend, nah, it’s getting kinda lame
When we both know, it’s more than just a game
Why we frontin’, why we hiding? It’s breaking inside
We can’t stay cool when the fire’s too high

Oh, you and I, it’s more than friends
Stop denying what won’t end
Caught in a loop, we can’t defend
So why we still play pretend?
Oh, you and I, it’s way too tense
Every glance just screams suspense
Caught in a loop, we can’t defend
So why we still play pretend?

Scared of the fall, yeah, maybe it’s tough
But holding back ain’t ever enough
Can’t keep pretending, we’re better than this
Let’s stop frontin’, let’s take the risk

Oh, you and I, it’s more than friends
Stop denying what won’t end
Caught in a loop, we can’t defend
So why we still play pretend?
Oh, you and I, it’s way too tense
Every glance just screams suspense
Caught in a loop, we can’t defend
So why we still play pretend?
