Fools - Lyrics by Eloy


Lyrics
we're walking contradictionsand toothless we try to bitewe live up to our standardsthough we know they ain't rightfools we always stand up to fight when nothing's left to winwe draw the shades when we're botheredignorance is our twin
We've got our fancy but empty preconceived lifeinstance of how we wondered why we're seldom satisfiedbut only the fools will applaud this strange self-deceptionbut only the fools will believe in resurrection of ideals in purest formthey're the first who have claimed their pieceand then the first who will ask for releasewhy do we sanction their means with a nodboasting the absolute freedom of thoughtwe are foolswe hide with pride behind tolerant wordsneglecting the fact that we've been luredwe are foolswe are foolsbut only the fools will applaud this strange self-deceptionbut only the fools will believe in resurrection of ideals in purest formthey're the first who have claimed their pieceand then the first who will ask for release
