Pretender Lyrics by VELVET MOON

Queen of Hearts

2018

How many mountains to get some confidence?
How many debates to earn some tailwind?
The years pass, I’m still the same
What will it take, why the wait?
Up and down
I’m losing ground
Pretender tell me, what to believe
I ain’t got a sweet tooth for lying
Big spender show me, how to succeed
My wallet is spreading thin
Ooh, ooh what to do
I am me and not you
Ooh, ooh what to say
Please make the strain go away, pretender
How many right turns, to reach some kind goal?
How many dressing up, for me to play some ball?
Seasons change, still thе same range
What will it take, tеll me why the wait?
Up and down
I’m moving around
Pretender tell me, what to believe
I ain’t got a sweet tooth for lying
Big spender show me, how to succeed
My wallet is spreading thin
Ooh, ooh what to do
I am me and not you
Ooh, ooh what to say
Please make the strain go away, pretender
Just don’t ask me to lie
I’d give anything else a try, pretender
Pretender tell me, what to believe
I ain’t got a sweet tooth for lying
Big spender show me, how to succeed
My wallet is spreading thin
Ooh, ooh what to do
I am me and not you
Ooh, ooh what to say
Please make the strain go away, pretender
Pretender tell me, what to believe
I ain’t got a sweet tooth for lying
Big spender show me, how to succeed
My wallet is spreading thin
Ooh, ooh what to do
I am me and not you
Ooh, ooh what to change
I seem to be stuck in this lane, pretender
