The Pretender

I live with the life that I made
I get from the things that I gain (might be gave also)
My arms are outstretched I hope for the best
I act rich before I get paid

I sold off my soul for these jeans
wherever I go it's a scene
everyone's staring as I act not caring
attention is breathing to me

oh I am The Pretender.

My confidence pours in this glass
It helps me to hide from my past
life of the party I know everybody
but no one gets behind this mask

oh I'm The Pretender.
oh another pretty pretender
yeah

I tell her whatever it takes
My truth is as shifting as shapes
I kiss her and hug and tell her I love her
then laugh as her tender hearts breaks

oh I am The Pretender
oh I'm just a pretender

oh I am The Pretender
oh I am The Pretender
