So Many Fools Songtext / Lyric

Is there

No such thing

As friendship?

Is it possible

Not to slip

Past the point of genial

With a quip

Implying something more?

This is what the young girl wonders

As her heartbeat races

Thunders

Trying to drown out the grotesque

Blunders

Of a man at war

With the fact that he could be

Her father

Twice over

And she

A lady of sound mind and body

Was not meant for fools as he



Must a man be so unthinking?

When he sees his ship is sinking

Will he always try to grasp the

Wing of one

Who still can fly?

This is what the young girl ponders

As she does

Her vision wanders

Trying not to notice how much

Fonder looks the old man's eye

Down upon her form

And face

Believing she might like the chase

But knowing still

That he has no place

As he shows his true disgrace



Will my life be like this ever?

Must I laugh

And call them clever

Or else fight

And scratch

And claw

In fury

At so many fools?

This is what the young girl muses

As she battles shame

And loses

Leaving nothing

But so many

Bruises

Made by unseen tools

Wielded by a strengthless hand

Which could not hope to understand

How quickly it kills

Though unplanned,

Turning spirit into sand
