Just pretend to be my date.

 'just pretend to be my date'

While I handle myself straight,

Chuggings beers fresh and stale,

Wait for me 

And pretend to be my date.

While I cry over calls and tell things I shouldn't,

Open up my pathetic heart,

Listen to me

And pretend to be my date.

.

When I send you snaps in weird poses,

My nose touching the tongue or pouts adorning the face

Just see them in vain

And pretend to be my date.

When in doubt, 

I come running into your hands 

with options of 15 shades and 3 colors for my pants,

Ignore them, cause I'll choose only what I aim

And pretend to be my date.

When while surfing the net, 

finding something curious, 

I come to tell you the stakes,

Correct me if wrong and wait for me to understand,

And pretend to be my date.

And when reading these words 

if tears and smile both spring up 

upon your face,

Tell me your thoughts in private,

And pretend to be my date.
