Please come clean,
Tell me, were you pretending?
Out of all the things you said,
Did you mean a single word?

You said that you loved me,
But you’re really good at faking.
It’s impressive, I admit,
So I’ll pretend it doesn’t hurt.

I’ll look as if I’m happy,
Like I’m glad we’re finally done.
See, I too, am good at acting,
You’ll never know you won.
