Counterfeit (Redux)

I won't believe a single word no matter what you say

You won't make me into your pawn or now become your prey

You speak of peace but the house is burning It's burning down

Put iodine in the well we're drinking It's poisoning

I don't believe we fell for your masquerade

You won't make me into your pawn

We won't believe

I've caught the beat and rhythm of the shallow words you say

It's all just lies you're hiding so we don't see your decay

It's all just lies and vanity falling from your mouth

We won't believe

It's all just vanity and lies from your mouth It's all insanity disguised

You tell us truth is the path we've chosen It's treachery

Infect the youth with the truth you've woven It's villany

I see right through your careful worded charade

You won't make me into your pawn

We won't believe

I've caught the beat and rhythm of the shallow words you say

It's all just lies you're hiding so we don't see your decay

It's all just lies and vanity falling from your mouth

We won't believe
