Damien Rice - Fool
If you leave me now,
It's not that I can't take it, It's just that
somehow,
I think you'd break it so much beyond repair.
Like pulling out
my hair,
and poisoning the roots.
A gun that never shoots again
and if
you leave me now,
and take him deep within your throne,
like you did
when you were coming home,
and you did again in Mexico,
and again before
you go,
and I believed your lies, your lies, your lies.
So turn and
walk away.
I've overspoken. Said all that I can say,
I know that I can
kneel and I could cry.
And I know that I could show you how I died,
but
what good would it do?
Give the world another fool,
If you're gonna
stay,
don't just say it. Stay, really stay.
I don't want any more
goodbyes, any more disguise.
No more tossing coins or him between your
loins.
And if you're gonna stay,
I'll place you high upon a hill
and
with my hands I'll build a tower in your name.
And you will do the same.
Won't you my love? Won't you my love? Won't you my love?
Or just turn
and walk away.
I've overspoken, said all that I can say.
I know that I
can kneel and kiss your feet,
walk ahead and clear the street.
So you
don't have to meet but what good would it do.
Give the world another
fool.
Turn and walk away. I've overspoken.
Now what more can I say?
I
know that I can kneel and I can cry.
I know, I know that I can show you
how I died,
now what good would it do.
Give the world another fool, just
sitting on this stool.
I'm close to giving up on you.
