Bad Omens
JUST PRETEND (LIVE 2024)
[Part I: Just Pretend]

[Intro]
You know this one, I know it
I want you to sing it with me, be loud
I can wait for you at the bottom
I can (Stay away if you want me to)
I can wait for years if I've gotta
Heaven knows I (Ain’t getting over you)

[Verse 1]
I'm not afraid
Of the war you've come to wage against my sins
I’m not okay
But I can try my best to just pretend

[Pre-Chorus]
So will you wait me out
Or will you drown me out?
So will you wait me out
Or will you drown me out?

[Chorus]
I can wait for you at the bottom
I can stay away if you want me to
I can wait for years if I gotta
Heaven knows I ain't getting over you
[Verse 2]
I know the pain
That you hide behind the smile on your face
And not a day
Goes by that I don't think I feel the same

[Pre-Chorus]
So will you wait me out
Or will you drown me out?
So will you wait me out
Or will you drown me out?

[Chorus]
I can wait for you at the bottom
I can stay away if you want me to
I could wait for years if I gotta
Heaven knows I ain't getting over you

[Post-Chorus]
We'll try again
When we're not so different
We will make amends
'Til then I'll just pretend

[Interlude]
You know what to do, hold those lighters up
Hold those flashlights up on your phone
Every row, every balcony of people, everybody
[Bridge]
Weigh down on me, stay ’til morning
Way down, would you say I’m worthy?
Weigh down on me, stay 'til morning
Way down, would you say I’m worthy?

[Interlude]
Your turn to sing

[Chorus]
I can wait (For you at the bottom)
I can stay away if you want me to
I could wait for years if I gotta
Heaven knows I ain't getting over you

[Post-Chorus]
We'll try again
When we're not so different
We will make amends
’Til then I'll just pretend

[Outro]
(Weigh down on me, stay 'til morning)
Thank you all so much, we have been Bad Omens
It's been a pleasure, we'll see you again
(Way down, would you say I'm worthy?)
Weigh down on me, stay 'til morning
Way down, would you say I'm worthy?
[Part II: Just Pretend (Acoustic)]

[Verse 1]
I'm so afraid
That the walls that I have made have locked me in
I'm not okay
But I can try my best to just pretend

[Pre-Chorus]
So will you wait me out until I let you down?
So will you wait me out until I let you down?

[Chorus]
I can wait for you at the bottom
I can stay away if you want me to
I can wait for years if I've gotta
Heaven knows I ain't getting over you

[Verse 2]
I know the pain
That you hide behind the smile on your face
And not a day
Goes by that I don't wish it'd go away

[Pre-Chorus]
So will you wait me out until I let you down?
So will you wait me out until I let you down?

[Chorus]
I can wait for you at the bottom
I can stay away if you want me to
I can wait for years if I gotta
Heaven knows I ain't getting over you

[Post-Chorus]
Can we try again?
When we're not so different
Can we make amends?
Why can't we just pretend?

[Bridge]
Weigh down on me, stay 'til morning
Way down, would you say I'm worthy?
Weigh down on me, stay 'til morning
Way down, would you say I'm worthy?

[Chorus]
I can wait for you at the bottom
I can stay away if you want me to
I can wait for years if I gotta
Heaven knows I ain't getting over you

[Post-Chorus]
Can we try again?
When we're not so different
Can we make amends?
Why can't you just

[Outro]
Weigh down on me, stay 'til morning
Way down, would you say I'm worthy?
Weigh down on me, stay 'til morning
Way down, would you say I'm worthy?
