I suppose it would be quite easy to give up
Turn the other cheek and walk away
Make out like none of this is real
And hope that things will change another day...
I suppose we could pretend it never happened
That things are the same as they were
That this has not affected us whatsoever
And we have no penalties to incur....
I suppose I could just lay in bed and sleep
Dream of what once was or could have been
Make up stories for our friends
Blur the edges and exclude the in-between...
I suppose we could make believe we're fine
Let others think we are adding to our years
If outsiders think that all is well
We won't have to show them our tears...
I suppose we could just move on
Pretend like none of this is true
I believe it might work a bit for me
And possibly work a bit for you...
I suppose you could stay at a mates'
Just take your make-up and some clothes
I could stay here trying to suss out what went wrong
I suppose.
