Let's play pretend, my hopeless twin
I'll pretend that I'm you, and you'll pretend you're me;
No one can lose and no one can win
Let's just pretend and we will see!
I'll get to see myself from a viewer's eyes,
And maybe that's what I've been doing all along
Maybe you understand me better, and I'm wrong
Maybe I am the one filled with lies

Because when I look into the mirror,
I see a stranger

Let's play pretend, my lonely twin
I hope we're not too similar, or close,
Because what if we pay for each other's sin?
You're disgusting, fake and gross
But, you're just me aren't you?
You're my reflection in the mirror
Yes, now I see it clearer,
But also, I do not have a clue

Let's just play pretend
And for once I'll see
Why you're so hopeless and lonely,
Why you're like me
