False Pretence

Fierce Grace

False Pretence is the debut single by U.K. Alt-Rock band Fierce Grace.
It’s about singer Lexy Davis’s experiences with a friend who turned out to be a narcissist. Lexy says “Its about growing up and realising that not everyone you think is your friend, is actually your friend. People easily stab you in the back and hurt you.”

Lyrics:

You took my worth and made it worthless
You took my hope and made it hopeless
All because you couldn’t take it
To see me make it

You took my joy and made it joyless 
You took my heart and made it heartless
All because you couldn’t shake it
So let me take it

I fell for the false pretence 
That you could actually be my friend
That’s when I knew this had to end
I never knew you could be, so damn evil
Once I learned it I walked away

I told you my dreams and you made them yours
I told you my plans and you raced me to them
You always had to be the best

Now here I am writing a song about you
And everything you put me through
Years of absolute hell
But I learnt to shake it
Now it’s my time to make it

That you could actually be my friend
That’s when I knew this had to end
I never knew you could be, so damn evil
Once I learned it I walked away

I fell for the false pretence 
That you could actually be my friend
That’s when I knew this had to end
I never knew you could be, so damn evil
Once I learned it I walked away
