The Pretender
Keep you in the darkYou know they all pretendKeep you in the darkAnd so it all began
Send in your skeletonsSing as their bones go marching in... againThe need you buried deepThe secrets that you keep are at the readyAre you ready?
I'm finished making senseDone pleading ignoranceThat whole defenseSpinning infinity, butThe wheel is spinning meIt's never ending, never endingSame old story
What if I say I'm not like the others?What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?You're the pretenderWhat if I say that I'll never surrender?
What if I say I'm not like the others?What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?You're the pretenderWhat if I say that I'll never surrender?
In time or so I'm toldI'm just another soul for sale... oh, wellThe page is out of printWe are not permanentWe're temporary, temporarySame old story
What if I say I'm not like the others?What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?You're the pretenderWhat if I say that I'll never surrender?
