He Pretended
He opened up the window
And I opened up my heart
He handed me a cigar
And I smiled in the dark
I pretended to ignore him
He pretended that he cared
He said I wasn’t shy or stupid
I said I wasn’t scared
My reality was dark and grim
But with him there was this light
I was drawn to him, moth to candle
Held in everlasting night
Nothing helped, I wasn’t sane
My heart and mind weren’t level -
It’s hard not to second guess yourself
When you’re talking with the devil
