Am I smiling when you look at the picture of me?
Am I smiling? Though it’s in the past, though I know I shouldn’t
Wherever you go, I’m torturing you
I’ll pretend I’m dead, if it hurts you to see me
I’ll pretend I’m dead, if it hurts you to see me
Because this is all I can do for you
I can’t wipe away your tears

If you are looking at me right now
If memories of me are making you cry
From a place where you can’t reach
I’ll pretend to be dead, don’t cry

Sorry for saying sorry
I just thought of you and stopped by your place
You’re still so pretty and a guy who looks serious about you
Was kissing your soft forehead, making you turn red and bow your head

Everything about us, even our inexperience
Nothing has changed and I’m standing here like a fool
Looking at you, now we’re so far away
I’ll just pretend I’m dead
I won’t make things hard for you
Don’t look back but be happy
Just like the traces of me that are in the corners of your house
I’ll just pretend I’m dead

If you are looking at me right now
If memories of me are making you cry
From a place where you can’t reach
I’ll pretend to be dead

I was always sorry
I only expected you to understand
Don’t cry because of me, the good-for-nothing
Forgive me, though you can’t hear me
Don’t cry because of me anymore
I’ll pretend I’m dead
I’ll hide inside your eyes though it hurts
So you can smile now

If you are looking at me right now
If memories of me are making you cry
From a place where you can’t reach
I’ll pretend to be dead
