Pretender

What lies
Behind
Your pretty house with the white picket fence?
And all the barbies that you call your friends?

Is your life
A lie?
Nothing’s as good as it seems
And you’re not the girl of their dreams

Oh, maybe your life is all flowers
Maybe I’m insecure
Maybe you’re good at taking pictures
Maybe you’re a pretender

Oh, Pretender
I’m pointing my finger at you
Pretender
If only they knew what I knew
Yeah, if only they knew what I knew (mmm)

I’m happy
In me
Ain’t that supposed to be enough?
So why am I sulking, calling your bluff?

Maybe your life is all flowers
Maybe I’m insecure
Maybe you’re good at taking pictures
You’re a pretender

Pretender
I’m pointing my finger at you
Pretender
If only they knew what I knew
Yeah, if only they knew what I knew (mmm)

Pretender
I guess you’re really not so bad
Maybe you pretend
But you look like you got the life I wish I had
I created to be plastic and deadly
I created you to hide my own envy
To hide my own envy

Pretender
I wish I knew what you knew
Pretender
If only I was like you
Maybe, I’m pretender like you
