We say we're just being patient
Like that's something you can choose
You call this growing older
I call it losing you
We don't raise our voices
We don't say what's wrong
We just stack up all the moments
Hoping they don't fall
We don't break, we don't bend
We just live like it depends
On the day, on the mood
On pretending we're good
We don't lie, we just guess
If we make it through this mess
Call it love, but it don't make sense
Yeah, we're a little past pretense
I rehearse what I won't tell you
Every time you say my name
You smile like nothing's different
I smile back the same
We keep calling this commitment
Like it's not built out of fear
Staying's easier than leaving
So we just stay right here
We don't break, we don't bend
We just live like it depends
On the day, on the mood
On pretending we're good
We don't lie, we just guess
If we make it through this mess
Call it love, but it don't make sense
Yeah, we're a little past pretense
Maybe nothing's really broken
Maybe this is how it goes
Two people holding pieces
Too afraid to let them go
We don't need a big disaster
We don't need a final scene
Some things end in quiet corners
Where we don't say what we mean
We don't break, we don't bend
We just live like it depends
On the day, on the mood
On pretending we're good
We don't lie, we just guess
If we make it through this mess
Call it love, but it don't make sense
Yeah, we're a little past pretense
No one leaves, no one stays
We just let it fade
