[Verse 1]

Truth shattered, tears tasted, love given, love wasted

I put my trust in something that turned out to be nothing

Heart I thought was gold, it was only made of stone

I believed everything, all the empty words you said

All the bankrupt promises, that was all you left me with

[Chorus]

I thought your love was money in the bank, yeah

That's what I used to think, yeah

But it was nothing but a lie

I stupidly believed it

I thought it was the real shit

But it was counterfeit

[Post-Chorus]

Counterfeit, counterfeit

Nothing real

Yeah, it was counterfeit, counterfeit

A bad exchange deal

[Verse 2]

Deception, delusion, burned by an illusion

I lost my pride in your kiss and you were never worth it

It was supposed to be making love, not make-believe

Yeah, you sure fooled me, all the empty words you said

All the bullshit promises, I wish we had never met

[Chorus]

I thought your love was money in the bank, yeah

That's what I used to think, yeah

But it was nothing but a lie

I stupidly believed it

I thought it was the real shit

But it was counterfeit

[Post-Chorus]

Counterfeit, counterfeit

Nothing real

Yeah, it was counterfeit

[Bridge]

Was a bad dream

Was a bad situation (Situation)

I wanted love (Wanted love)

Got a bad imitation

[Chorus]

I thought your love was money in the bank, yeah

That's what I used to think, yeah

But it was nothing but a lie

I stupidly believed it (Mm, I stupidly believed it)

I thought it was the real shit (Yes, I did)

But it was counterfeit

[Post-Chorus]

Counterfeit, counterfeit (Oh, counterfeit, yeah)

Nothing real

Yeah, it was counterfeit, counterfeit

A bad exchange deal (A bad exchange deal, yeah)

Counterfeit, counterfeit (Oh, counterfeit, no)

Nothing real (Ooh, it was nothing real, yeah)

Yeah, it was counterfeit, counterfeit (Ooh, yeah)

A bad exchange deal (Oh, oh)

[Outro]

Ooh, yeah

It was just like a bad dream, baby

Ooh, it was counterfeit, baby
