If We Could Just Pretend

Where did you go and what did you do
With all the time you were too scared to move
What is it like to be by yourself
For three and half years
For roughly three and a half years
If we could just pretend that I went to college
And that is why you, you haven’t seen me
I wanted to go, but not for this long
I overdid it, I overdid it
Why did you say that I was one in a million
Because I believed it
I thought I had something
That you were too scared to lose
So if we could just pretend that I went to college
And traveled abroad
And did something different
Anything but just sitting at home
For three and a half years
Writing song after song after song
So what is it like to be by yourself
And not feel like you’ll die around everyone else
I thought I was one in a million
Well, thanks for nothing
Thank you
Thank you
