A tale of betrayal and disappointment unfolds in this emotionally charged track. The lyrics highlight the pain and disillusionment experienced when someone who was once considered a close friend or family member turns their back on you. The title, "False Pretense," refers to the deceitful actions of this individual, who pretends to be something they're not, only to hurt and betray in the end. The song also emphasizes the importance of letting go of such toxic relationships for one's own peace of mind. It's a powerful commentary on trust, friendship, and the harsh reality that not everyone who claims to be your ally is truly on your side.
False Pretense
Lyrics
Oh, it's time to let it go
The world's got a funny way of turning round on you
When a friend tries to stab you right in the face
Losing faith in everything I thought, I hoped and knew
Don't sweat it
Set a false pretense
Betray, you're not gonna be willing to change
Yeah, and it doesn't seem likely to fade
Betray, you're not gonna be willing to change
Ca-ca-ca-ca-cause you know
In sacrifice
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Stop pretending to deny
False pretense, you'll hurt again
All along you know you thought you got the best of me
You were wrong and I'm laughing right in your face
I cannot believe you claimed you were my family
Don't sweat it
Set a false pretense
Betray, you're not gonna be willing to change
Yeah, and it doesn't seem likely to fade
Betray, you're not gonna be willing to change
Ca-ca-ca-ca-cause you know
In sacrifice
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Stop pretending to deny
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Guitar
Oh, it's time to let it go
I can't seem to understand it
How you've turned out to be so cold
You tried but were caught red handed
Are you happy with your role?
It's funny to me how you've turned into such a joke
In sacrifice
False pretense, you'll hurt again
Stop pretending to deny
False pretense, you'll hurt again
So play the game until you run out
And play the game into my head
