False Pretense
Oh, it's time to let it go
The world's got a funny way of turning 'round on you
When a friend tries to stab you right in the face
Losin' faith in everything I thought I hoped I knew
Don't sweat it, set off false pretense
Betray, you're not gonna be willin' to change
Yeah, and it doesn't seem likely to fade
Betray, you're not gonna be willin' to change
'Cause you know
In sacrifice
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Stop pretending, don't deny
False pretense, you'll hurt again
All alone you know, you thought you got the best of me
You were wrong and I'm laughing right in your face
I cannot believe you blamed, you were my family
Don't sweat it, set off false pretense
Betray, you're not gonna be willin' to change
Yeah, and it doesn't seem likely to fade
Betray, you're not gonna be willin' to change
'Cause you know
In sacrifice
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Stop pretending, don't deny
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Oh, it's time to let it go
I can't seem to understand it how
You've turned out to be so cold
You tried but were caught red-handed
Are you happy with your role?
It's funny to me how
You've turned into such a joke
In sacrifice
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Stop pretending, don't deny
False pretense, you'll hurt again
So play the game until you run out
And play the game into my head
The world's got a funny way of turning 'round on you
When a friend tries to stab you right in the face
Losin' faith in everything I thought I hoped I knew
Don't sweat it, set off false pretense
Betray, you're not gonna be willin' to change
Yeah, and it doesn't seem likely to fade
Betray, you're not gonna be willin' to change
'Cause you know
In sacrifice
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Stop pretending, don't deny
False pretense, you'll hurt again
All alone you know, you thought you got the best of me
You were wrong and I'm laughing right in your face
I cannot believe you blamed, you were my family
Don't sweat it, set off false pretense
Betray, you're not gonna be willin' to change
Yeah, and it doesn't seem likely to fade
Betray, you're not gonna be willin' to change
'Cause you know
In sacrifice
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Stop pretending, don't deny
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Oh, it's time to let it go
I can't seem to understand it how
You've turned out to be so cold
You tried but were caught red-handed
Are you happy with your role?
It's funny to me how
You've turned into such a joke
In sacrifice
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Stop pretending, don't deny
False pretense, you'll hurt again
So play the game until you run out
And play the game into my head
