Validation

It’s blank
It’s empty
Put something on it

I’m just pretending

Smoke clouded judgment
You’re in my face again
I know where you are

I’m just pretending

You beat me down
My face in the gravel
This is all I am

I’m just pretending

Pray to your god
I read my books
Their shoes are paper

I’m just pretending

I’ve come so far
Nothing to show
It feels time to go

I’m just pretending

I see the way
The toast rises
Plunge the blade

I’m just pretending

Go away
Please come back
Ask the nice man

I’m just pretending

Cut the chord
Slip the steel
Fear the pulpit

I’m just pretending

Nothing at all
Everything at once
Fly the coup

I’m just pretending

Love her
Avenge him
Kiss me goodbye

I’m just pretending

Fold the robe
Place the bet
Crush the dream

I’m just pretending

Walk through vapors
Seduce the flame
Wash your hair

I’m just pretending

This is me
Not what it means
Changing nothing

I’m just pretending

Your way
Lick the parchment
Think of a smile

I’m just pretending

Pierce the cricket
Spread my wealth
Exploding cradles

I’m just pretending

Mustered weakness
Flush excitement
Purged bone

Stop
