Artist/Band: Foo Fighters
Lyrics for Song: The Pretender
Lyrics for Album: Greatest Hits [2009]



Keep you in the dark you know they all pretend

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 at the ready, are you ready?



I'm finished making sense

Done pleading ignorance that whole defense

Spinning infinity, but 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 will 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 that 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 that 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 will never surrender



I'm the voice inside your head, you refuse to hear

I'm the face that you have to face, mirrored in your stare

I'm what's left, I'm what's right, I'm the enemy

I'm the hand that'll 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 will 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 that I'll never surrender



What if I say I'm not like the others?

(Keep you in the dark)

What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays

(You know they all)

You're the pretender

(Pretend)

What if I say I will never surrender



What if I say I'm not like the others?

(Keep you in the dark)

What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays

(You know they all)

You're the pretender

(Pretend)

What if I say I will never surrender



So who are you

Yeah who are you

Yeah who are you!
