Three pretenders forced their entry
There wasn't time to defend or attack
Somewhere inside I held their fury
But one by one my defenses began to crackThe first became a voice from my childhood
Without a world to call his own
Asking questions but doubting the answers
And too confused to stand up and face it aloneI can feel my body tremble
Like an animal under the gun
Can you feel your body tremble
Look in and see the eyes of Three PretendersThe second came a shadowy hustler
Selling anything not nailed to the ground
He put a price on my resistance
And if it's high, I know he'll be marking it downThe third became a mysterious traveller
Stormy words like sea-weathered sails
His life was scarred with peaks and valleys
A haunted kingdom crumbling against the galesI can feel my body tremble
Like a child afraid of the dark
Can you feel your body tremble
Look in and see the eyes of Three Pretenders
