Billy Talent - Don't Need To Pretend Lyrics






Swimming in the dark, we're bound to drift apart
And I just can't go on, pretending we're in love.
We play with matches in the rain but never learn
We try to light it but the fire never burns
You thought that love was just a casting call,
well its our turn to quit before the curtain falls

Don't need to pretend to love me, you don't need to pretend to want me,
You don't need to pretend to need me, we just never were meant to,
Am I wrong?
Am I right?
Have I lost my mind, lost my mind

Now I dance around her heart, like an actor plays the part.
I hit the stage and I get blinded by the light,
I read the script, but I just can't recite the lines
You thought that love was just a casting call,
well its our turn to quit before the curtain falls

Don't need to pretend to love me, we just never were meant to ever be,
You don't need to pretend to love me, we just never were meant to,
Am I wrong?
Am I right?
Have I lost my mind [x2]

So get on with your life 'cause we're just wasting time.

  1. L.... R....

    Sad nibba hour

  2. t.... ....

    Still Great

  3. K.... D....

    How is that I still find BT songs that I don't know of?! LOVE IT

  4. E.... H....

    Am i wrong?

  5. A.... n....

    I love this. When you thought you've heard all BT songs but you learn about bonus tracks

  6. S.... G....

    why is this saying not on the album

    S.... G....

    you need the special edition of the album and you'll get this and another awesome song.

    S.... G....

    The other song is blood and nails +broken hearts I believe

    S.... G....

    You can get Bloody Nails and Broken Hearts on iTunes, but Don't Need To Pretend was Germany exclusive, I think.

  7. t.... ....

    ... Why are we not funding this??

  8. A.... V....

    Hab den song in den letzten Tagen das erste Mal gehört und freu mich so darüber, wieso hat das nicht für's Album gereicht? :D

    A.... V....

    Man muss ja auch noch was gutes haben, damit sich die Deluxe version lohnt ;)

  9. D.... ....

    its kind of ironic that i heard the song for the first time, when i had a gf, back then everything was fine, but it shouldnt be for long, few days after i already had the feeling she would quit, after another week the time had come.

    D.... ....

    Same Story

    D.... ....

    I think it's happening to me right now...Woah

    D.... ....

    @Danick julien stay strong brother

    D.... ....

    Kinda the same here :(

  10. C.... G....

    Die ersten 30 sek sind dad beste intro von B! :D

  11. S.... ....

    Don't Need To Pretend practically evolved into Dead Silence. Same kind of concept, but better.

  12. R.... D....

    never heard this!

  13. B.... ....

    Es ist ein Bonustrak von musicload.de (wenn du Billy Talent III kaufst). Der Bonustrak von Itunes ist Bloody Nails+Brooken Hearts.

    **It's a bonustrak of musicload.de (when you buy Billy Talent III). The bonustrak of Itines is Bloody Nails+Brooken Hearts**

  14. B.... ....

    It's on the musicload.de edition of the album III.

  15. S.... ....

    We play with matches in the rain but never learned
    We try to light it but the fire never burns.
    Sorry but army matches actually burn in rain :D

  16. T.... ....

    Of course. Billy Talent 27.11.2009 Frankfurt and 07.10.2012 Frankfurt :D

  17. N.... S....
