Let's just pretend

This cold moonless night
Now that Heaven and Hell look the same
And angels sing along with demons
It's time for us to meet
And dance till dawn we shall,hiding our emotions behind our masks

We'll just have to pretend our hearts don't beat faster as we stand before eachother,for we are cruel,souless
And those like us never love

Hide our smile
we must
Behind numb expressions
As we bow
Link fingers
Hold hands
And start spinning

The stars' silver light's
captured in the folds of my dress
The night sky's black
all gathered in your eyes
-"This eternall dance of us I wish I could break"
-"I wish you had the power to"

We twist and turn
And fly again
Our toes feel like they're no more touching the earth
Your hands around my waist tremble slightly then tighten their grip
You hold me close
My breath caught in my throat
-"I've never wished I could keep you like that forever"
-"I've never dreamt you would"

We keep going in circles
We spin
And sing
We feel weak within
Droplets of rain shine on my hair Frozen wind's sighs on yours
The bright red ribbon
Suddenly comes untied from my wrist
Wraps itself around your neck for a moment
Then falls in the ground
Our faces inches apart
-"I pray to touch you not"
-"I beg not for a kiss"

As we look at eachother's sparkling eyes
And broken expressions
Let's just pretend we mean what we say
Let's just pretend

'Cause breaking dawn is here again
It's time for this dance to end
Break apart we must
And act like
We're not sad
We feel no pain

I'll just pretend I didn't notice the kiss you planted on my finger tip before letting go
You'll just pretend you didn't feel me shivering under your lips

And as we walk away in opposite directions
Let us bow for the last time
And whisper our biggest lie
-"I love you not"
-"Neither do I"
