Lacey - Under the Brightest Lights

Contender

I played it out from the start
And I played it down to an art for you
While you were stepping on stones
I was out breaking my bones for you, so
Get up
Get up
I'm fooling no one
Get up
Get up
You'll find
That I'll be the catch in your throat
I'll be the silence you broke
I'll be the one who was biting my tongue
To make it seem that
I'm a contender
But I'll concede to myself
And play the pretender

If I told you I was the worst
You'd still eat every word that I say
And if my character's flawed
And my backs against the wall
And I get called on for all that I've done
I'll make it seem that
I'm a contender
But I'll concede to myself
And play the pretender
I'll be the catch in your throat
I'll be the silence you broke
I'll be the one who was biting my tongue
To make it seem that I'm a contender
Get up
Get up
I'm fooling no one
Get up
Get up
I'm fooling no one
Get up
Get up
I'm fooling no one
Get up
Get up
I'm fooling no one

Well look who's crying out
For the attention I've taken from you
Under the brightest lights as you stood by as if Id shy away
Get up
Get up
I'm fooling no one
Get up
Get up
I'm fooling no one
Get up
Get up
I'm fooling no one
Get up
Get up
Get up
Get up
I'll make you say that
I'm a contender (I'm a contender)
But I'll concede to myself
And play the pretender (play the pretender)
I'll be the catch in your throat
I'll be the silence you broke
I'll be the one who was biting my tongue
To make it seem that I'm a contender (Get up, get up)
So get up get up
I'm fooling no one
