Pretend

Sometimes I pretend 
That when my world
comes crashing down 
That I'll be standing 
That i will have landed 
with my feet on the ground 
I pretend that I'm okay.
That the smile on my face
won't fade away
That I won't cry myself to sleep
That day.
I pretend I'm understood
That what I said
Is listened to
That I'm not disappearing
into the crowd
That I'm not getting lost with no
Way out.
