Pretenderness from Pretenderness by Your Ex's Pets

we’ve all got something to hide behind
we lie to be kind
we try to be blind but
we’ve got plausible deniability
for our negativity
we learn through mimicry

i can’t remember how tenderness feels
i only know how to fake it
i’m pretty glass with no substance inside
i’m beautiful when my eyes are vacant

i’ve always given up easily
i don’t want to be
anyone’s enemy but
you’ve always wanted a righteous fight
one where you’re always right
it’s only black and white

i can’t remember how tenderness feels
i only know how to fake it
i’m pretty glass with no substance inside
i’m beautiful when my eyes are vacant

i know i’m just a pretender at heart
i only know how to fake it
i’ve been performing my tenderness so long
i’m beautiful when my eyes are vacant
