"The Faker" lyrics

"The Faker"

He bought me diamonds
That's all I'll say
They were rhinestones
Plastic and paste
He gave me sugar
Or that's what I thought
But it was artificial and store-bought

He was a faker
I was a fool
Fallin' for an imitator
That's what I do
He was a lesson
I learned about later
I was a sucker
For the faker

We were so happy
We were so high
But when it all came down
I, I saw the light
And his true colors
Were starin' back at me
Well, fancy clothes just don't dress up cheap

Yeah, he was a faker
I was a fool
Fallin' for an imitator
That's what I do
He was a lesson
I learned about later
I was a sucker
For the faker

He was a faker
I was a fool
Master manipulator
He broke all the rules
I was his game
And he was my player
I was a promise
He was the breaker
I was a scepter
Held by the jester
I was a sucker
For the faker

Yeah, I was a sucker
For the faker
