Socialburn originated in the mid-'90s around high-school pals Neil Alday (vocals/guitar), Dusty Price (bass), and Brandon Bittner (drums). After forming on the fly in their tiny central Florida hometown, the group expanded into the scene in nearby Tallahassee. Listeners took a liking to their straightforward post-grunge growl, and Socialburn was soon a hit at local radio. By 2000, guitarist Chris Cobb had been added and a self-released CD had dropped. SB branched out with gigs in Jacksonville and Orlando, hoping to generate label interest in an area already buzzing with the success of Creed.

Pretend Lyrics

Socialburn

Did you see the sky tonight
It was covering a world so bright
Hiding from a place inside you could never really see the light
But Im having trouble sleeping cause I know no ones awake
I wish that I was dreaming cause then I could see your face
And I wish I knew a place to hide
I wish I knew a place inside
Where I could
[chorus]
Pretend youre the only one
Pretend youre the only one
Pretend youre the only one
Thats never far away
But youre having trouble breathing
Cause the world takes your breath away
And youre hiding from the demons
That attack you everyday
And I wish that I could be there
To help take away the pain
But looking in my mirror
I could never see your face
[chorus]
[bridge]
But if I could see your face tonight
I would give away my worthless life
Crawling on my hands and knees
I beg you, I beg you, I beg you::.
[lead break]
[chorus x2]
