Lyrics Pretender - Julian Bell
I
was
never
the
desperate
type
No
trouble
with
saying
goodbye
Until
I
watched
our
candlelight
Flicker
out
She
never
showed
a
warning
sign
Never
gave
me
a
reason
why
I
saw
the
roses
in
her
eyes
Wither
out
But
you
changed
your
ways
Like
a
Judas
you
turned
Your
words
into
poison
No
aid
for
this
pain
Its
getting
hard
and
i
need
another
way
to
breathe
My
words
are
slurring
and
im
just
trying
to
make
believe
That
i'll
be
ok,
yes
I'll
be
ok
Im
Lying
to
myself
till
its
true
A
great
pretender,
there's
nothing
else
that
i
can
do
A
great
pretender
A
great
pretender
I
must
surrender
To
the
great
pretender
They
say
a
lover
is
all
you
need
To
make
it
through
life
with
ease
But
i'm
living
down
on
my
knees
Searching
for
Something
to
guide
me
to
The
person
i
thought
i
knew
A
prayer,
a
message,
A
psychic,
a
blessing
The
questions
are
killing
me,
Killing
me
Its
getting
hard
and
i
need
another
way
to
breathe
My
words
are
slurring
and
im
just
trying
to
make
believe
That
i'll
be
ok,
yes
I'll
be
ok
Im
Lying
to
myself
till
its
true
A
great
pretender,
there's
nothing
else
that
i
can
do
A
great
pretender
A
great
pretender
I
must
surrender
To
the
great
pretender,
what
can
i
do
Wishing
i
could
let
you
go
But
you're
still
on
my
mind
Wonder
did
i
ever
know
you
Cause
youre
still
on
my
mind
100
thousand
miles
between
us
But
youre
still
on
my
mind
Pretending
i
could
love
another,
But
youre
still
on
my
mind
Its
getting
hard
and
i
need
another
way
to
breathe
My
words
are
slurring
and
im
just
trying
to
make
believe
That
i'll
be
ok,
yes
I'll
be
ok
Im
Lying
to
myself
till
its
true
A
great
pretender,
there's
nothing
else
that
i
can
do
A
great
pretender
A
great
pretender
I
must
surrender
To
the
great
pretender
What
can
I
do
A
great
pretender
A
great
pretender
I
must
surrender
To
the
great
pretender
What
can
I
do
I
must
surrender
To
the
great
pretender
What
can
i
do
