Lyrics: Pretend (2017)

[rocknroll1968]

Pretend
Giants in the Trees

Let's play pretend

Oh, love
Oh, love

Sitting on the porch
Contemplate my own mind
I line up my last week [there?]
And watch the world go by

And now the movies of my mind
Are playing again
Times when we faded
We were so outta sight
Come on
Let's pretend to

Fly
Into the night
Down
Darkness fills our light
Fly
Spiral down with you
Lie near
Just learn to be good to yourself

You're falling down, love
Oh, love

You know I'm changing skin again
Looking toward the moon
Seeking violence from our mother
And wings to stir us, too

And together we run
Dusted by the desert's empty sand
[Glass grates too great?]
I fill our buckets
With the love that fills our hands

And we fly
Into the night
Down
Darkness fills our light
Fall
Spiral down with you
You're near
Just learn to be good to your soul

You're falling down, love

For two other songs that use the word "faded", click here and here. Kurt and Krist seem to have had their own special meaning for the term, which appears to be used as slang for orgasm.
