Denial
Denial, in ordinary English usage, is asserting that a statement or allegation is not true. The same word, and also abnegation (German: Verneinung), is used for a psychological defense mechanism postulated by psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud, in which a person is faced with a fact that is too uncomfortable to accept and rejects it instead, insisting that it is not true despite what may be overwhelming evidence. An individual that exhibits such behaviour is described as a denialist or true believer. Denial also could mean denying the happening of an event or the reliability of information, which can lead to a feeling of aloofness and to the ignoring of possibly beneficial information.

IN DENIAL
by: Saddle ClubHow do you know when you're falling
Cuz everything seems so surreal
How do you know that it's love calling
It's just the magical way you feel
I feel so warm when I'm around you
The sparkle in your eyes they hypnotize
My heart pounds, my heart pounds
Feels so right, I'm finally having fun now
But when it's time to leave, do you want to say bye
I don't think so
I think I'm falling for you
But I'm in denial
I know I'm scared that it's true
I like it a lot
I think I'm falling for you
But I'm in denial
It's bad but I know it's the way to go
The way I feel baby
When I am with you
How do you know you're not just dreamin'
When it feels just too good to be real
How do you know your bubble won't burst yeah
I won't be left just hanging there, up in the air
I think I'm falling for you
But I'm in denial
I know I'm scared that it's true
I like it a lot
I think I'm falling for you
But I'm in denial
It's bad but I know it's the way to go
The way I feel baby
When I am with you
Love is everything I wanted to know
This is everywhere I wanted to go
It can make you feel so unreal
This is everything I wanted to feel
I feel so warm when I'm around you
The sparkle in your eyes they hypnotize
My heart pounds, my heart pounds
Feels so right I'm finally having fun now
But when it's time to leave do you want to say bye
I don't think so
I think I'm falling for you
But I'm in denial
I know I'm scared that it's true
I like it a lot
I think I'm falling for you
But I'm in denial
It's bad but I know it's the way to go
The way I feel baby
When I am with you
I think I'm falling for you
But I'm in denial
I was scared that it's true
But now I'm not
I think I'm falling for you
But I'm in denial
It's bad but I know it's the way to go
The way I feel baby
When I'm with you
I think I'm falling for you
But I'm in denial
I was scared that it's true
But now I'm not
I think I'm falling for you
But I'm in denial
It's bad but I know it's the way to go
The way I feel baby
