Wild Accusations - Keep Pretending Lyrics

All my memories are suffused with a glow
Endless sunshine that I no longer know
Gold-limned dreams keep me up all night
And it seems that I can't stop the light

But I have to keep pretending for now
Keep pretending though I don't, know how

Rose colored glasses make real roses look dull
And spare hall passes are no cure for this lull
Drifting by in desperate search of a pause
Don't ask why, just accept the applause

But I have to keep pretending for now
But I have to keep pretending for now
But I have to keep pretending for now
Keep pretending though I don't, know how

Know how, know how

But I have to keep pretending for now
Keep pretending though I don't, know how

Bad nostalgia is a curious sin
It grabs ahold and takes me back where I been
So much drama trying to stamp out my flaws
All the trauma didn't serve any cause

But I have to keep pretending for now
But I have to keep pretending for now
But I have to keep pretending for now
Keep pretending though I don't, know how

Know how, know how
