Pretending To Care Lyrics

  Today I am your chariot horse
  Tomorrow I'm your albatross
  Suspended by the finest thread
  No one could ever see
  And when there's breathing in your ear
  You put your faith in all you hear
  But just how deep those feelings go
  I have no way to know
  I'll never know
  
  If I was blind
  Would you still be my eyes
  Or hide everything you see
  Pretending to care about me
  When all the time
  You're just wishing I'd fade away
  You just can't bring yourself to
  
  Say out loud the reasons why
  You won't admit you realize
  The promise you've been living by
  Is just an empty shell
  You'll come to bear it like a cross
  Then start to tear it like frayed gauze
  Though I'm ashamed to be afraid
  I just can't help myself
  Can't help myself
