Fool

If you leave me nowIt's not that I can't take itIt's just that somehowI think you'd break itSo much beyond repairLike pulling out my hairAnd poisoning the rootsA gun that never shoots againAnd if you leave me nowAnd take him deep within your throneLike you did when you were coming homeAnd you did again in MexicoAnd again before you goAnd I believed your lies, your lies, your lies

So turn and walk awayI've overspokenSaid all that I can sayI know that I can kneelAnd I could cryAnd I know that I could show you how I diedBut what good would it do?Give the world another foolIf you're gonna stayDon't just say itStay, really stayI don't want any more goodbyesAny more disguiseNo more tossing coinsOr him between your loinsAnd if you're gonna stayI'll place you high upon a hillAnd with my handsI'll build a tower in your nameAnd you will do the sameWon't you my love?Won't you my love?Won't you my love?

Or just turn and walk awayI've overspokenSaid all that I can sayI know that I can kneelAnd kiss your feetWalk ahead and clear the streetSo you don't have to meet.. himBut what good would it do?Give the world another fool

Turn and walk awayCause I've overspokenNow what more can I say?I know that I can kneelAnd I can cryI know, I knowThat I can show you how I diedNow what good would it do?Give the world another foolJust sitting on this stoolI'm close to giving up on you
