Clare Maguire - The Happiest Pretenders lyrics
[Clare Maguire - The Happiest Pretenders lyrics]
He licks the paper, turns the page
He writes the spoken word again
Releases pools of untrapped blood
To camouflage what’s understood
Wrapped up in a golden throne
He undresses, overloads
Walks quietly to a distant place
Honest lies in washed out grace
Indicate we’re locked in
With the kings and queens
We are the happiest pretenders
And we are the happiest pretenders
Dressed down towards the Tyne
He chases evening’s wonder whys
Then misses hours time again
Sweeps him underneath it's wings
Indicate we’re locked in
With the kings and queens
We are the happiest pretenders
And we are the happiest pretenders
And if they try to catch us out
We’ll chase them down, yeah
We’re gonna chase them down
'Cause we are the happiest pretenders
He wipes the crystal from his eyes
He hit's the lights then leaves them dry
Undoes tomorrow's unknown will
Let's it slide, tastes the thrill
He wipes the crystal from his eyes
He hit's the lights then leaves them dry
Undoes tomorrow's unknown will
Let's it slide, tastes the thrill
Oh, 'cause we are the happiest pretenders
And we are the happiest pretenders
And if they try to catch us out
We’ll chase them down, yeah
We’re gonna chase them down
'Cause we are the happiest pretenders
He wipes the crystal from his eyes
He hit's the lights then leaves them dry
Undoes tomorrow's unknown will
Let's it slide, tastes the thrill
He writes the spoken word again
Releases pools of untrapped blood
To camouflage what’s understood
Wrapped up in a golden throne
He undresses, overloads
Walks quietly to a distant place
Honest lies in washed out grace
Indicate we’re locked in
With the kings and queens
We are the happiest pretenders
And we are the happiest pretenders
Dressed down towards the Tyne
He chases evening’s wonder whys
Then misses hours time again
Sweeps him underneath it's wings
Indicate we’re locked in
With the kings and queens
We are the happiest pretenders
And we are the happiest pretenders
And if they try to catch us out
We’ll chase them down, yeah
We’re gonna chase them down
'Cause we are the happiest pretenders
He wipes the crystal from his eyes
He hit's the lights then leaves them dry
Undoes tomorrow's unknown will
Let's it slide, tastes the thrill
He wipes the crystal from his eyes
He hit's the lights then leaves them dry
Undoes tomorrow's unknown will
Let's it slide, tastes the thrill
Oh, 'cause we are the happiest pretenders
And we are the happiest pretenders
And if they try to catch us out
We’ll chase them down, yeah
We’re gonna chase them down
'Cause we are the happiest pretenders
He wipes the crystal from his eyes
He hit's the lights then leaves them dry
Undoes tomorrow's unknown will
Let's it slide, tastes the thrill
