Darling?
What did you make for dinner?
Oh, I thought you had a natural talent
Oh, it's just a joke, stop yelling
Oh, I told you it was just a joke, stop yelling
Am I the sick one?
I just got here, you're already full of resentment
You already had something, so why are you leading me on?
I tell you it was just a joke and you complicate things when we're good
And I know you're resentful so don't tell me "relax, it's nothing"
Go ahead, I'm going for a walk
Yeah, I'm going for a walk
Yeah, I'm avoiding you, so what?
Yeah, I know, I'm the one who talks about love and building a roof
But you know, I tried to heal our wounds, we just kept bleeding
Our love rarely came out like the silverware in a china cabinet
In porcelain, we fight for a week then our bodies mingle
Okay, it's not unpleasant but all our faults sleep and wake up
With each fight we pretend we don't care
You know, pretending to have hearts of stone, we sink
You know, having hearts of stone, we sink

Let's pretend to be happy
We forget what we know
It's easy to be two
It's only in front of our guests that we love each other
It's easy to be two, eh, eh
When we pretend to be happy, eh, eh, eh
Let's pretend to be happy

We fight, we make love and then we start again
We make love, we fight, we always wonder how
Then we zap with a press of a button on a remote control
But it's the same thing that the TV presenter comments
We fight, we make love and then we start again
We make love, we fight, we always wonder how
Then we zap with a press of a button on a remote control
We're just a little more tired, each time I wonder
Can fights be addictive?
And I don't know but each new day adds new adjectives
"I don't care", "I don't give a damn", it's a tragedy
"Dirty bastard", "dirty bitch", yeah this time I said it
Yo tell me everything, why are we always hurt?
I put so much money into this couple that today I can take anything
But no, I'm not talking about money
But well, that's family life
Having a job to pay the bills while your couple is starving
And yet, we're both fooling ourselves
I'm not even sure we think about us when we have sex with our eyes closed and shit
It's been going on for months
Sometimes I'm afraid you can lie better than me
We were so beautiful, apparently
A beautiful association but I understand that it's suffering that sponsors
Yeah, the mechanics of the heart, a complex device
But if we had the chance to repair ourselves, would it be the same?

Pretend to be happy
It's easy to be two
It's easy to be happy, baby

Let's pretend to be happy
We forget what we know
It's easy to be two
It's only in front of our guests that we love each other
It's easy to be two, eh, eh
When we pretend to be happy, eh, eh, eh
Let's pretend to be happy
