The Good China - If Pain Persists lyrics

With a little imagination I pretend Your shiny new pearl necklace was a gift from me Oh, the thought of all this glorious gift givin' is enough to make me give when there's nobody to receive Such a waste to piss away what should be draped around your neck But when realities too much to take, Self deception is a vital sk** to perfect Believe I know that I ain't got no chance Of this turning into romance But if I suspend my disbelief Maybe then Ill find a little relief Maybe then Ill finally get relief With a little imagination I pretend The pleasure you're expressing was caused by me Glad to oblige... I love to see you happy. The brutal reality is as far as youre concerned, I don't even exist But taking refuge in my fantasies Is a little too hard, baby, to resist Believe I know that I ain't got no chance of this turning into romance But if I suspend my disbelief Maybe then Ill find a little relief Maybe then Ill finally get relief Youll never know just how much I care While you're blissfully unaware, Its an unrequited love that I wish we could divey up and share Youll never know just how much I care While you're blissfully unaware, This unused excess of pa**ion ferments into pain and despair Youll never know just how much I care
