Lyrics

I'm sitting here and try to cope
In the dark I pray and hope
I really tried - where is the way?
It's enough - can't see the day

All I can do is not worth a thing
Because nobody is noticing
That's why I say: "They'll never know!"
Just to protect the ones I'm loving so

This is the reason why I

Pretend I am laughing
When there's no reason for it
Pretend I am sparkling
When I'm not sparkling with wit
Pretend I am singing
When my throat is tightening
All of that's pretending
'Cause I don't love anything

Pretend I'm not crying
In my pillow late at night
Pretend I'm realizing
That this prayer was replied to
Pretend I'm controlling
How my life now has to be
Hide me when I'm howling
So that no-one has to see

What was that? Did you smile at me?
The despair I had begins to leave
You caught me off guard and I sense the health
Feel it in my heart - trick myself
Happiness hormone - welcome back
Know I'm not alone on this track

This is the reason why I

Pretend I am laughing
When there's no reason for it
Pretend I am sparkling
Because their love has lit it
Pretend I am singing
When my throat is tightening
All of that's pretending
But their warmth is a real thing

Sometimes I am crying
In my pillow late at night
Now I'm realizing
That this prayer was replied to
Pretend I'm controlling
How my life now has to be
Even when I'm howling
I know that they're loving me

Thank you, that you're always there for me even when I'm to blind to see it. That you cheer me up, when I don't deserve it, take me higher, when I'm feeling down and cause me finally to live my life in dignity.

This is the reason why I

Pretend I am laughing
When there's no reason for it
Pretend I am sparkling
Because their love has lit it
Pretend I am singing
When my throat is tightening
All of that's pretending
But their warmth is a real thing

Even when I'm howling
I know that they're loving me
I know that they're loving me
I know that they're loving me

Wow, this song REALLY packs an emotional punch. I was so gripped by the way the lyrics conveyed the hopelessness, and then the hope. Someone noticed; someone cared; someone loved. The rhymes are sharp and tight. The vocal is convincing. I think this song would really appeal to lost young people who are searching for love and the way. Maybe some older people too!
