Keep you in the dark
You know they all pre tend
Keep you in the dark
And so it all began
Send in your skeletons
Sing as their bones come marching in
Again
The need you buried deep
The secrets that you keep are ever ready are you ready?
I'm finished making sense
Done pleading ignorance
That whole defense
It's been an infinity, oh
The wheel is spinning me
It's never ending
Never ending
Same old story
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I'll never surrender?
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I'll never surrender?
In time, or so I'm told
I'm just another soul for sale
Oh well
The page is out of print
We are not permanent
We're temporary
Temporary
Same old story
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I'll never surrender?
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I'll never surrender?
I'm the voice inside your head You refuse to hear
I'm the face that you have to face, mirroring your stare
I'm what's left
I'm what's right
I'm the enemy I'm the hand that will take you down
Bring you to your knees so who are you?
Yeah who are you
Yeah who are you
Yeah who are you
Keep you in the dark
You know they all pretend
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I'll never surrender?
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I'll never surrender?
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I'll never surrender?
What if I say I'm not like the others?
What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays?
You're the pretender
What if I say I'll never surrender?
So who are you
Yeah who are you
Yeah who are YOUUUUUU!!!!
