The Pretender - Foo Fighters Lyrics!!

[@SeanLKearns]

Anybody listening to this during a turning point in your life, you're doing it, be who you really are, rock on.

[@samsonkimani2683]

The song is about politicians 😅

[@MyASMR777]

Right on!! Songs fit where they fit...I relate to this big time.

[@jameswilliams7346]

Up bc c u

[@brandonpetit6173]

Yep

[@tanyamongold1973]

Yes I am. It came to me in my car a couple months ago before the shitshow. Things are changing tho. Head banging this😊

[@tylerleswing]

One of the greatest rock songs ever written

[@armondtanz]

Yes. Gotta be up there. It reminds me of a movie soundtrack. That haunting guitar at beginning is also the same as the chorus. 2 different vibes but cemented together so so well...

[@redhotchilipepper432]

I've never been a huge fan of the Foo Fighters, but damn is this song is powerful

So that part where he says "What If I say I'm not like the others?" I've always thought it was "One of these things is not like the other!" and I sang it at a talent show in the 8th grade and everyone started calling me Metal Rock Elmo...

If anyone has ever been with a narcissist or know about them, this song is about realizing the abuse and moving on.
