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
There's 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)

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

It's all just vanity and lies (from your mouth)
It's all insanity disguised (disguised)
You tell us truth is the path we've chosen
It's treachery
Infect the youth with the lies you've woven
It's villainy

I see right through your careful worded charade
You won't make me into your pawn
(We won't)

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

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
(We won't)

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, we won't believe
We won't believe, we won't believe
We won't believe, we won't believe
We won't believe, we won't believe
