Buzzing lights, busy streets
Broken heart, empty dreams
I am the great pretender
When on stage
The whole world got engaged
The scream, the joy
The yell, the cry
I loved it, so I thought
I am the great pretender
Behind the closed doors
Felt a labour of my course
As I watched life move by
Not knowing, I was a puppet or a pie
Everyone loved, but no one to love
I am the great pretender.
