Waking up and no one’s home
I don’t believe it
I turn my television on
So I don’t feel alone
I’m talking to my dog
Because she can understand me
And just to hear a human voice
Inside these walls
I do these tricks as a day routine
To ease the pain, to not feel a thing
I do my act like I’m born for this
I do my best to hide my tears
…every day I’m pretending
That I don’t miss you at all
That I don’t miss spending nights underneath your armpit
Like a little kid lying down besides his mommy
And that I don’t miss your kiss
…it’s as simple as this
I’m walking slowly
So you won’t know the weight I’m wearing
And I don’t show my face
To reveal the pain I’m bearing with
And I rarely call my friends
It’s kind of a sixth sense
Because they will see my hollow soul
And see through my defense
I do these tricks as a day routine
To ease the pain, to not feel a thing
I do my act like I’m born for this
I do my best to hide my tears
…every day I’m pretending
That I don’t miss you at all
That I don’t miss spending nights underneath your armpit
Like a little kid lying down besides his mommy
And that I don’t miss your kiss
…it’s as simple as this
Pretending that I just don’t see you
When I close my eyes
Pretending that I just don’t hear your voice
When no one is around
Pretending that I don’t remember
The smell of your skin
And every day I am pretending
That I’m not praying
That I don’t miss you at all
That I don’t miss spending nights underneath your armpit
Like a little kid lying down besides his mommy
And that I don’t miss your kiss
…it’s as simple as this
