Pretend
Kiernan McMullan

Straight out of the vein and into the revolution
Take our junkies, our homeless, and our weak
Fill them up with solid expectations
The end never really justified the means

Move up, get out, get off on the assumption
That we're all too stupid and naive
Livin a life of explanation
That lacked just a little bit of stability

Put it all into perspective
You've only got yourself to blame
It seems we only ever hang our heads in needless shame and need I name
Everyone who botched it up or caused a fuss right, wrong or indifferent
Such are the times that stay heavy even after they're gone
Strength can move mountains but it takes too long
And I know that some days we think we're better than most
But your high horse won't buy somebody elses clothes

Throw away the greed and the preconcieved
Without sounding like you're gonna start to pawn and preach
Take on an attitude that scares and shocks
Saying peace cannot be found inside a cereal box

I guess it comes down to the sleepness nights,
The drunken fights, the right to be wrong or right
And who knows when all of this may come to an end
Cuz man life's just peachy when its all pretend

Straight out of the vein and into the revolution
Take our junkies, our homeless, and our weak
Fill them up with solid expectations
The end never really justified the means

Move up, get out, get off on the assumption
That we're all too stupid and naive
Livin a life of explanation
That lacked just a little bit of stability
