Slash

Saul Hudson (born July 23, 1965), better known by his stage name Slash, is a British-American musician and songwriter.

Easy come for some that's easy go
But it's never easy on your own
Times will change for those who,
Who'd never know
Till it's too late to get back home

Great pretender, there will come a day
When the last song fades and you've grown old
Great pretender, you cannot replace
All the love you lost long ago
Won't you take your final bow 
You're on your own

Lights for now they are still shining bright
But you can't escape this truth in time
Mask you wear is only your disguise
To hide the tears that fall inside

Great pretender, there will come a day
When the last song fades and you've grown old
Great pretender, you cannot replace
All the love you lost long ago
Won't you take your final bow
You're on your own

Do you remember when you promised her
That you would be there till the end
A distant dream led to the, to the deepest hurt
And though you've tried, you can't forget

Great pretender, there will come a day
When the last song fades and you've grown old
Oh, great pretender, you cannot replace
All the love you lost long ago
Won't you take your final bow
You're on your own
