Master Pretender [explicit] Lyrics - Stay Gold [explicit] - First Aid Kit

I never thought that I was weak 

Always thought I could get hurt pretty bad 

Still get up on my own two feet 

I always believed that I was free 

That I had some sense of integrity 

That would rise above whatever tried to change me 

But honey, now, I won't wait 

For something to bring me round and smile 

Cause that only sticks for a while 

Then I'm back again 

Oh, I'm a master pretender

I always knew that I was young 

But with a head held high and a sharp tongue 

I could fool most anyone 

I never expected to be struck 

By the fatal hands of fortune or by 

Sheer bad luck 

But honey, now, we won't change 

And memories just rearrange 

And fall is a ways 

So I'm back again 

Oh, I'm a master pretender 

Oh, the streets of New York City 

Sure look pretty from way up here 

And I was headed home, just felt more alone the further I go 

I always thought you'd be here 

But shit gets fucked up and 

People just disappear 

So honey, now, don't be mad 

Time has told me it can't be that bad 

And if it is, well, I'll be goddamned 

But I'll stick around 

I'll be your master defender 

Yeah, I'll stick around 

I'll be your master defender
