[Intro]

I'll pretend

I don't know if I'll break or bend

Tripping up over my loose ends

"Ooh, what if it's like—"

[Verse 1]

I can't tell where or when

But I lost myself

Left behind what I could not sell

Sleepless nights in a cheap hotel

'Spite all the pain that you put me through

I woulda stayed if you asked me to

Oh, my, my

[Verse 2]

Can't you see?

You told yourself that it's meant to be

After a while, even you fooled me

[Chorus]

I-I-I don't know

What I'll do or where I will go

Can't stay here, and I can't go home

Looking for some kind of sign

I-I-I'm afraid

Can't go back to the mess I made

I'll pretend 'til the memories fade

Or 'til I run outta time

I-I-I

I-I-I

[Verse 3]

I'll pretend

But I don't know if I'll break or bend

Tripping up over my loose ends

I can't talk to all my old friends

I-I-I don't know

What I'll do or where I will go

Can't stay here, and I can't go home

Looking for some kind of sign

I-I-I'm afraid

Can't go back to the mess I made

I'll pretend 'til the memories fade

Or 'til I run outta time

I-I-I

I-I-I

I-I-I, woo-ooh

I-I-I

[Outro]

I can't tell where or when

But I lost myself

I left behind what I could not sell

Sleepless nights in a cheap hotel

'Spite all the pain that you put me through

I woulda stayed if you asked me to

Oh, my, my
