Keep you in the dark you know they all pretend
Keep you in the dark and so it all began Send in your skeletons Sing as their bones come marching in, again The need you buried deep The secrets that you keep are ever-ready Are you ready? I'm finished making sense Done bleeding ignorance at your defense Spinning and (?) it deeper The wheel is spinning me It's never-ending, never-ending Same old story What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender What if I say I will never surrender? What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender What if I say I will never surrender? In time or so I'm told I'm just another soul for sale Oh well The pages that were print They are not permanent They're temporary, temporary Same old story What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays You're the pretender What if I say I will never surrender? What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender What if I say I will never surrender? I'm the voice inside your head You refuse to hear I'm the face that you have to face Mirrored in your stare I'm what's left I'm what's right I'm the enemy I'm the hand that took you down Bring you to your knees So who are you? Yeah who are you? Yeah who are you? Yeah who are you? Keep you in the dark you know they all pretend What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender What if I say I will never surrender? What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender What if I say I will never surrender? (Keep you in the dark you know they all pretend) What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender What if I say I will never surrender? (Keep you in the dark you know they all pretend) What if I say I'm not like the others? What if I say I'm not just another one of your plays? You're the pretender What if I say I will never surrender? So who are you? Yeah who are you? Yeah who are you? |

This song is catchy as fuck. It's so much heavier
than most of the stuff (if not all of it) from the
past 2 albums. It seems like Dave got tired of all
the acoustic shows and music from the past album,
and wanted to just go balls to the wall, and damn
did he ever. This is just making me want to hear
the rest of the album even badder now. I'm just
going to throw this out there, and say that this
will be the best album of 2007.

this is probably their best and most anthemic
single since "all my life." it's like that song
mixed with "my hero" and "monkey wrench," just
really aggressive and very melodic. i love it.

me personally i got tired of the acoustic shows, i
like the direction they are going, and from what i
heard they have the same producer from The Colour
and the Shape, so this is shaping up to be a great
album. good song.

My GOD - this band just gets better and better and
better with each CD. This song is so f-----
awesome and the video is great, too. Dave is
getting so philosophical with the years! lol I
relate so much to his great lyrics, and the music
is so incredible too. It's heavy but melodic.
NEVER SURRENDER!!!

I'll admit that I'm not a Foo Fighters fan but
this song really is amazing. The riff in the
middle of the song which is so reminiscint of 50's
rock & roll really rocks and roll my socks off.
The Chorus is pretty rocking aswell to say the
least.
