IAMX
I Like Pretending
[Verse 1]
Your silver skin that crawls in rhythm, sweats like spring
Returns me to the death wish
And all my epiphanies that branded me and broke my knees
Confirms me into the death wish

[Verse 2]
Misfits for free, a gravity pure expression tears
And pulls them into the death wish
And all our accessories that concentrate the pain and tease
Embrace them with the deathwish

[Chorus]
Are we pretending?
Are we pretending?
Are we pretending?
I like pretending

[Verse 3]
Are we machines obsolete, alone
With symbiotic self indulgence?
And if we dig deep, the circuitry burnt out bends
Into neurotic repetition

[Verse 4]
But your silver skin soothes my aching curses and
Reminds me that you're worth it
The whole world's insanities, the bleeding hearts and tragedies
Won't distract me from the deathwish
[Chorus]
Are we pretending?
Are we pretending?
Are we pretending?
I like pretending

[Chorus]
Are we pretending?
Are we pretending?
Are we pretending?
'cause I like pretending
