Pretender

They all caved in
I kept my own plan
To rise above the rest and start my own crowd
These are my friends
And what we stand for
Is strength to break and fight our own wars

I want you to feel
To feel and see
The affliction you embedded in me
Not for one second do I truly believe
That you were ever loyal to me, you just aim to deceive
You just aim to deceive

They all caved in
I kept my own plan
To rise above the rest and start my own crowd
These are my friends, and what we stand for
Is strength to break and fight our own wars

You say the things you say to make yourself feel better
Because you're weak and aren't half the person that you used to be

Now your problems are chasing me
Away from where I've wanted to be
For the rest of my life
Now I have to leave
Now I have to leave

I had close to nothing
There was nothing good here for me
I have nothing left to say
It's just another day
I had close to nothing
There was nothing good here for me
I have nothing left to say
It's just another day

They all caved in
I kept my own plan
To rise above the rest and start my own crowd
These are my friends
And what we stand for
Is strength to break and fight our own wars

You say the things you say to make yourself feel better
Because you're weak and aren't half the person that you used to be
