When All Pretending Ends

The times that matter are the times you've fallen
When angst and despair is there
The times that matter are the times I've fallen
When all pretending ends

That's when I really see you
And I really hear your voice
When you call me up and pretend
I was your only choice

In fact you were scared
And you knew if anyone I would be there

The times that matter are the times you've fallen
When angst and despair is there
The times that matter are the times I've fallen
When all pretending ends

Tell yourself you're living life
And that it's precious
You won't need me
In the place you are

In fact you always needed me
Even when I told you so
And you denied it

The times that matter are the times you've fallen
When angst and despair is there
The times that matter are the times I've fallen
When all pretending ends

Maybe somehow I'll make it through
Maybe somehow aided by you

Maybe I won't
And maybe I won't really matter

But I'll have believed
And even when you were miles away
You were never too far away to save

The times that matter are the times you've fallen
When angst and despair is there
The times that matter are the times I've fallen
When all pretending ends

  2. Thank you :) Well that's because those lines are the chorus of the song, so naturally they keep repeating. :) Thank you so much :)
