Текст песни
He walks in like he owns the light
A shiny star, so bold, so bright
He's got the answers, plays the king
A puppet master – without a string
Or so it seems
But that fire inside – it wasn't his own
It's borrowed from a voice he's overthrown
He seems so smart, he seems so great
But it's all a show – a second-hand fate
He steals the crown, he takes the throne
The Great Pretender – but he's alone
He brags of visions, grand and new
But every line is someone else's view
He speaks with power, he speaks with grace
But there's nothing real behind his face
That confidence was built on borrowed ground
The one who gave it all – now doesn't make a sound
He seems so smart, he seems so great
But it's all a show – a second-hand fate
He wears the mask, he plays the role
The Great Pretender – with an empty soul
He knew it all… or so we thought
But every battle he just fought –
Was someone else's war, someone else's cost
Now tell me, genius – what have you lost
When the well runs dry and the curtain falls –
Who will answer when the silence calls
He seemed so smart, he seemed so great!
But the world saw through – it was all fake!
You built your world on a borrowed slate –
The Great Pretender – you sealed your fate
The Great Pretender
Fading away
The Great Pretender
Nothing left to say
