Bright room, dark shades
Smokey eyed, no shame
You wish you could explain
Broken hearts, silly dreams
That help you to believe
This insanity
Begging a smile if they all knew
What you are going through
You're the great pretender
Your game, your strain
Clean up your communication
You have died inside
No one can really understand
You're not that whole but you pretend
No one can really understand
You're not that cold but you pretend
Can you still play the game your way
You're the great pretender
Heavy brow, crack a smile
Live your life, you're numb
There is no sensation
Feel weak, falling deep
Crave to be free
Just wanna feel like a woman
Bright room, dark shades
Smokey eyed, no shame
Oh you, you wish you could explain
Broken hearts, silly dreams
That help you to believe
This insanity
No one can really understand
You look so whole but you pretend
No one can really understand
You're not that cold but you pretend
No one can really understand
You look so whole but you pretend
No one can really understand
You're not that cold but you pretend
Can you still play the game your way
You're the great pretender
