[00:12.490] Remember walking hand in hand side by side
[00:18.590] We walked the dogs and took long strolls to the park
[00:22.690] except we never had dogs
[00:27.190] and never went to the park
[00:36.290] Remember how we used to fuck all night long
[00:42.490] Neither do I because I always passed out
[00:46.490] I needed lots of the booze
[00:51.890] to handle the pain
[01:00.490] You don't have to pretend to care
[01:06.490] You don't have to say things that you don't mean
[01:18.490] You don't have to pretend to care
[01:24.490] You don't have to say things that you don't mean
[01:33.490] It just embarrasses me
[01:37.490] And makes you look like a fool
[01:47.490] Remember when the tenderness stopped
[01:52.490] and the kindness turned to pity and disgust
[01:57.490] and the smiles were stopped
[02:01.490] before they could start
[02:10.490] And understanding was now just a tool
[02:15.490] We used it every chance we got to be cruel
[02:20.490] And we cringed because
[02:24.490] We couldn't make ourselves stop
[02:34.490] You don't have to pretend to care
[02:40.490] You don't have to say things that you don't mean
[02:52.490] You don't have to pretend to care
[02:57.890] You don't have to say things that you don't mean
[03:07.190] It just embarrasses me
[03:11.490] And makes you look like a fool
[04:07.490] There are days when I think about you
[04:13.490] And on those days I really feel like a fool
[04:17.490] Because you don't deserve
[04:21.490] To have somebody think about you
[04:30.490] I feel so stupid because I let myself down
[04:36.490] I acted like a motherfucking clown
[04:41.490] At a circus
[04:45.490] On the outskirts of town
[04:55.490] You don't have to pretend to care
[05:01.490] You don't have to say things that you don't mean
[05:12.490] You don't have to pretend to care
[05:18.490] You don't have to say things that you don't mean
[05:27.490] It just embarrasses me
[05:31.490] Because you think you're so fucking cool
