I Can Pretend You Aren't Killing Me..

I can lie and say I'm fine,
I can hold that smile on my lips
and hold your hand in mine.

I can pretend you aren't killing me.
I can lie and say that I'm okay.
I hope I can keep this act up
Each and every day.

I can pretend that it's not killing me
each time that she's with you.
I can laugh and smile and say I'm fine
because that's what I'm supposed to do..

I can pretend that it's not killing me.
when I allow myself to go through this.
I can pretend not to hear your words,
Pretend not to see every kiss.

I can pretend you aren't killing me..
because that's what I'm supposed to do..
But when the question comes to call
Tell them what killed me, was you.
