The Pretender

I live with the life that I made
I get from the things that I gave
My arms are outstretched I hope for the best
And 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 beyond this mask

Oh, I am the pretender
Oh, another pretty pretender
Yeah

I tell her whatever it takes
My truth is as shifting as shapes
I kiss and hug her and tell her I love her
Then laugh as I tend her heartbreak

Oh, I am the pretender
Oh, I'm just a pretender

Oh, I am the pretender
Oh, I am the pretender
