"Counterfeit" lyrics

"Counterfeit"

The magic disappeared
On a Sunday afternoon
The first time that I saw you
For who you really are
And yeah it's kinda weird
How you rearranged the story
Just to keep all of your glory
But you left out the part

Where you did to me
What was done to you
I guess hurt people
Hurt people too

I thought I found someone I didn't need to fix
A mama's boy with a heart of gold
I was a wide-eyed naive optimist
Bet it all and now I'm broke
You played me like a violin
Really had me buyin' it
Til I found out you're counterfeit

A weekend in Montgomery
Showed your integrity
Chose her instead of me
Like I didn't mean a thing
Had the audacity to ask me
If I could be happy for you
What a fucked up thing to do

I thought I found someone I didn't need to fix
A mama's boy with a heart of gold
I was a wide-eyed naive optimist
Bet it all and now I'm broke
You played me like a violin
Really had me buyin' it
Til I found out you're counterfeit

(Ohh, ohh)

Put you on a pedestal
You told me it was casual
I know I'm a smart girl
But you made me irrational
One day I'll wake up
And it'll all be laughable

I thought I found someone I didn't need to fix
A mama's boy with a heart of gold
I was a wide-eyed naive optimist
Bet it all and now I'm broke
You played me like a violin
Really had me buyin' it
Then I found you're counterfeit
