Pretenders Lyrics - Soundtrack Exclusives & Rarities - Bad Religion

I give to you, you take from me 

We live in perfect harmony 

But I know you can't give me what I need 

Wwith subtle care and rosey hues 

We duke it out, we change our views 

We hold so dear our unanimity 

Oh... 

We are just pretenders 

We are just pretenders, lost in this charade 

We are just pretenders, characters on stage 

We are just pretenders, trying to break free 

We are just pretenders, hiding so no one sees 

We try to find our peace of mind 

Just a vestige we left behind 

But ignorance takes far less energy 

And if you please, I'll look to you 

Because I need somebody who 

Forgives me for my harsh reality 

Oh... but 

We are just pretenders 

We are just pretenders, we're trying to break free

We are just pretenders, we'll lose them easily 

We are just pretenders, trying to break free 

We are just pretenders, hiding so no one sees 

You standing there 

Playing with your hair 

Trying to ignore 

But peeking in the mirror 

Re-living the scenes 

From books and magazines 

Craving the life 

You live in your dreams 

And I'm standing here 

Thinking that it's queer 

But fearing that I am the same 

You ask me how I feel 

It's so damn surreal 

I think it's finally time we ended this game 

'cause we are just pretenders 

We are just pretenders, lost in this charade 

We are just pretenders...
