Pretend It's Home

(album: Porcelain Heart - 2014)

Breathe it in
Let the fear consume you
Then force it out
Remember that it's not true

The higher you climb
The farther you fall
But don't be ashamed
Of wanting it all

Cause the view from the top
Is beautiful but fleeting
The world seems to stop
But looks can be deceiving
You're surrounded
But you'll always be alone
So pick a place, pretend it's home

Take control
Be strong in your conviction
Embrace the pain
A dangerous addiction

Once you make a choice
There's no turning back
Trust only yourself
When you're under attack

Cause the view from the top
Is beautiful but fleeting
The world seems to stop
But looks can be deceiving
You're surrounded
But you'll always be alone
So pick a place, pretend it's home

I'm a secret, I'm a lie
I'm the weakness I despise
I am selfish, I am brave
I'll prove to you that I am not afraid

That I am not afraid

Cause the view from the top
Is beautiful but fleeting
The world seems to stop
But looks can be deceiving
You're surrounded
But you'll always be alone
So pick a place, pretend it's home

So pick a place, pretend it's home
