Trying To Pretend - Noémie Wolfs

The long dock road, you walk on every night

It seems to suit your wary troubled mind

You’ve soldiered on, you fought so long

As I remember your face

You’ve always tried, to shut a light

Upon your fall from grace

And all those words you’ve saved, still lie in my bed

Looking for that conversation to end

These knock knocks are calling you again

Your disguise, your favorite friend

Looking out for you, when you are trying to pretend

Is it guilt, that’s making you decide

On how long you’re gonna stay this time

Your future remains, when you play your games

A beautiful illusion

But maybe one day, with a little delay

You’ll find the illusion

And all those words you’ve saved, still lie in my bed

Looking for that conversation to end

These knock knocks are calling you again

Your disguise, your favorite friend

Looking out for you, when you are trying to pretend

You’re trying to pretend

And all those words you’ve saved, still lie in my bed

Looking for that conversation to end

These knock knocks are calling you again

Your disguise, your favorite friend

Looking out for you, when you are trying to pretend
