Playing Pretend - Gatton

[00:00.0]Playing Pretend - Gatton
[00:23.31]Played in the dirt
[00:24.95]Embraced every quirk
[00:26.77]Always getting hurt
[00:28.43]And we did not want to eat
[00:31.24]Lunch before dessert
[00:37.71]The messiest hair
[00:39.61]Life without a care
[00:41.41]Say your little prayers before
[00:43.94]You wake up again and
[00:46.82]Everything's fair
[00:52.43]Oh the days of growing up
[00:59.64]Where drawing in
[01:01.55]The lines was tough
[01:07.05]And mom's approval was enough
[01:12.46]But it became lust
[01:14.45]And drugs and filling up our cup
[01:22.2]Well I wanna know when
[01:23.99]I was stripped of my innocence
[01:28.45]And trading cards turned
[01:30.53]Into trading hearts
[01:36.81]And I wanna know when joy
[01:39.35]Became just a past tense
[01:42.96]And a band-aid no longer
[01:45.740005]Healed all our scars
[01:50.58]When every relationship
[01:53.55]Had an end
[01:56.81]Well I wanna go back
[01:59.990005]To playing pretend
[02:21.25]Always sucking thumbs
[02:22.97]Clothes covered in crumbs
[02:24.85]Everything was fun and great
[02:27.45]And we though that
[02:29.17]We'd stay forever young
[02:36.04001]Innocent laughs
[02:37.77]Night late bubble baths
[02:39.59]No regretting past mistakes
[02:42.13]Or always having goodbyes and lasts
[02:50.4]Oh the days of growing up
[02:57.85]Where drawing in the lines was tough
[03:05.2]And mom's approval was enough
[03:10.57]But it became grief mistrust
[03:13.7]And hands held down by cuffs
[03:20.37]Well I wanna know when fame
[03:22.78]And talent got spread apart
[03:26.56]And dumb and rich
[03:28.43]Became the new smart
[03:34.95999]And I wanna know when
[03:36.88]Beauty meant hating who you are
[03:41.12]When plastic fades and
[03:43.38]Body became hot
[03:48.75]When authentic meant
[03:50.73]Following the trends
[03:55.0]Well I wanna go back
[03:58.13]To playing pretend
