you belong with...

i had so many chances, but i let them all slip by.
it wouldn't have mattered anyway,
i'd still be the one to cry.

i'm trying to figure out what to do with this hurt
i guess i'll just have to write...

a song::


Pretender
Jessica K. Shannon

I'm such an actress,
My smile's painted on.

I tiptoe around it, but
You're my favorite song.
And you can't tell,
You never even took the hint.

And it's over.
And it never began.

{The day you told me it was serious
The night you called me your best friend}

I'm just a pretender;
I'm just a dancer,
Waltzing to the music in my head.

I'm the greatest imitator,
But I'm showered with regret.

{The day you told me it was serious
The night you called me your best friend}

I broke in places I didn't know I had.
