I'M TIRED OF PRETENDING...

• I'm tired of pretending that I don't care for you
• I'm tired of pretending that I found someone new
• Each lonely night keeps lending an atmosphere that's blue
• I'm tired of pretending that I'm not in love with you
• I'm tired of make believing that I'm happy when I'm not
• I'm tired of hearing people say just look how much he's got
• If you see me laughing it's just a thing I do
• I'm tired of pretending that I'm not in love with you
• I'm tired of pretending that everything's the same
• I hate to be indifferent when people call your name
• I'm tired of talking to myself and trying to ignore
• The things that meant so much to me when I had you before
• I'm tired of spending sleepless nights so many now it seems
• I'm tired of waking up to find you're only in my dreams
• I'm tired of pretending our love affair is through
• I'm tired of pretending that I'm not in love with you

JUST BECAUSE...

Just because I`m happy
doesn`t mean that I am high.
Just because I`m skinny
doesn`t mean I don`t like pie.
Just because I`m suicidal
doesn`t mean I want to die.
Just because I`m sad
doesn`t mean I have to cry.

Just because you hate me
doesn`t mean that I should care.
Just because you can`t see me
doesn`t mean that I`m not there.
Just because I`m perfect
doesn`t mean that I am right.
Just because he loves me
doesn`t mean that we don`t fight.

Just because I`m staying still
doesn`t mean that I am stuck.
Just because I`m not like you
doesn`t mean that I`m not cool.
Just because I`m good at maths
doesn`t mean I can`t play ball.

Just because I`m not what you think that i should be
doesn`t mean that you`re not acting out of spite and jealousy.
Just because I don`t wear as much make up as you do
doesn`t mean that I don`t crave acceptance just like you.
Just because I don`t show the pain thats always caused by you,
doesn`t mean its not about to rip my life in two.
