This is the best imitation of myself
And I’m addicted to the truth you swore you’d sell
Colosseums can’t contain the voices calling out your name
Am I a lion or a slave, I swear these patterns never change
Pretend you know my name
you are my sunshine in a shallow grave
Pretend you know my name
you are my sunshine through a tidal wave
I can’t keep putting myself in your hands
Near and distant foreign emba**ies provide only temporary remedies
And there’s no gift to such a curse, This gospel’s been reduced to a word
Colosseums can’t contain the voices calling out your name
Am I a lion or a slave, I swear these patterns never change
Pretend you know my name
you are my sunshine in a shallow grave
Pretend you know my name
you are my sunshine through a tidal wave
House of gla**, heart of stone
I want to know you, I want to be know
Pretend you know my name
you are my sunshine in a shallow grave
Pretend you know my name
you are my sunshine through a tidal wave
