I act like I'm fine but as Freddie said "I'm a great pretender No, I do not need you to be sympathetic I am filled with so much pain and confusion I wish that this was an illusion But I feel so empty and pathetic Tired and lethargic No words can actually explain what's wrong with me I simply can not fathom what I feel I just want to be set free To be free indeed and to move like the sea I'll do anything for someone to take my pain away Is it that I must bow my head and pray Or do I just play along And try to stay strong Well, I guess I'll pretend like I'm fine And pass by like time
