I told you everything
You pretended to listen
I showed you how I felt
You pretended to see
I showed you what it's like to be in love
You pretended to feel it
I served you a chance at happiness
You pretended to taste it
I told you to stop and smell the roses
You pretended to inhale
I eventually caught on
I eventually moved on
Now you claim that you
Weren't pretending
