i'm picking up these broken pieces again
i'm feeling like i'm lost and all i do is find you there
we've been here before
i'm never coming back again, not again
tomorrow is too soon for you my dear
i pushed you oh so far away when all i do is want you near
well i've been here before
not coming back again
and i can't sleep

because pretenders never sleep with a smile
it's hard enough to wake up after awhile
and even though i say i'm feeling fine
i'm locked up, loaded down, short a try

have i told you lately that i love you
have i told you that i hold nothing there above you
we've been around here before
we're never coming back again, not again
i love the way you walk
the way that you talk
the way you live
the way that you give me everything you promised you would
if i could, i'd be here
i can't
well i can't sleep

because pretenders never sleep with a smile
it's hard enough to wake up after awhile
and even though i say i'm feeling fine
i'm locked up, loaded down, short a try

i wish to god that i been there for you my dear
there's so much pushing me all around, i'd love to hold you near
and i don't expect you to stay
and i'm never gonna ask you why
because i'm locked up, loaded down, short a try
i'm locked up, loaded down
and i'm short a try

Different version of song performed by OAR at Northberg
____________________________________________________

I'm locked up and I'm down
Locked away
It's been a thousand times since I seen you come my way
I've been here before but I wont' be back again, back again.
The table shattered glass around my face
I miss all those old times
What a wonderful old place
I've been here before but I won't be back again, back again
And pretenders never sleep with a smile
It's hard enough to wake up after a while.
And even though I say I'm feeling fine.
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try.

We find ourselves at the same crossroads
I've been in this place before
And I don't' want anyone to know
That I'm on my way home but I won't be back again, back again
The next time that I see you will be my little end.
I'm layin on the ground and I've lost my breath again
This time I wont' be back
I won't be back again, back again.
Cause pretenders never sleep with a smile.
It's hard enough to wake up after a while
And even though I say I'm feeling fine
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try.

And pretenders never sleep with a smile
It's hard enough to wake up after a while
And even though I say I'm feeling fine
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try.
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try
I'm locked up loaded down and short a try.
