Melbee Mak-Happpiness at stake

My mind's a maze, it's a darkened place

Where the demons play, and they show their face

I'm lost in the haze, of a world that's fake

Where happiness is just a mistake

I'm searching for a light, in the dark of night

But it's hard to find, when the stars ain't right

I'm trying to escape, from this endless fight

But the shadows keep me, up till the morning light

I'm chasing the highs, but the lows are my fate

I'm trying to break free, but it's a never-ending state

I'm losing my grip, on the life that I create

I'm falling apart, and it's hard to relate

Happiness at stake*4

Here's a draft of the song:

We were playing pretence, in a game of love

Hiding our true selves, sent from above

We were chasing the highs, and the lows too

But our hearts were pretending, to feel it true

I was playing the role, of the perfect girl

You were playing the part, of the perfect whirl

We were dancing around, the truth we couldn't face

Our love was a lie, in a secret place

But I saw the real you, behind the disguise

A heart that was hurting, with a thousand goodbyes

And I knew in that moment, I had to walk away

From the love we were pretending, every single day

We were playing pretence, in a love that wasn't real

We were hiding our hearts, and the way we feel

We were chasing the moment, but it was all a lie

We were playing pretence, and I said goodbye

You were playing the hero, with a heart of stone

I was playing the victim, in a love that was unknown

We were lost in the moment, of a love that wasn't true

And I knew I had to leave, before I lost myself too

We were playing pretence, in a love that wasn't real

We were hiding our hearts, and the way we feel

We were chasing the moment, but it was all a lie

We were playing pretence, and I said goodbye

Now I'm standing here, with a heart that's free

I'm not playing pretence, I'm being me

I'm not hiding my heart, I'm letting it shine

I'm not playing pretence, and it feels so fine

So I'll take the memories, of the love we made

But I won't play pretence, with a heart that's not afraid

To feel the real love, to let it shine so bright

I won't play pretence, on this lonely night.

How does this sound?Here's a draft of the song:

We were playing pretence, in a game of love

Hiding our true selves, sent from above

We were chasing the highs, and the lows too

But our hearts were pretending, to feel it true

I was playing the role, of the perfect girl

You were playing the part, of the perfect whirl

We were dancing around, the truth we couldn't face

Our love was a lie, in a secret place

But I saw the real you, behind the disguise

A heart that was hurting, with a thousand goodbyes

And I knew in that moment, I had to walk away

From the love we were pretending, every single day
