Lyrics
Great Pretender
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everybody has an imperfection
She is picture perfect to me
At first she had the sweetest intention
Now are you gunna believe
She's always had a secret to tell but
Why'd she keep a secret from me
Everybody likes to feel the infection
But are you ready to bleed
When my world is a lie (She is a trouble for me)
She is a great pretender
She wanted me to believe
She is a great pretender
So don't believe what you see
My baby's feeling so insecure now
She's got no reason to be
I want to touch I want to taste her body all now
She's got no use for me
On the knees any way that I wanted
She gives herself what she needs
Everybody is so sick of the silence
So are you ready to scream
Now my world is a lie (She is a trouble for me)
She is a great pretender
She wanted me to believe
She is a great pretender
So don't believe what you see
Open up your eyes (lies, lies, lies)
Open up my eyes
She is a great pretender
She wanted me to believe
She is a great pretender
So don't believe what you see
She is a great pretender (lies, lies, lies)
She is a great pretender
