For a Fool

                
                
Young and bright
But now just a dim light
Off in the distance
A fallen stone
Following the path
Of least resistance
If I still fight
It’s just that I’m
Afraid I’ll slide under that spell again
Take him for a fool
Yes, I was
Because I was a fool
Tell me what you’d do
Lost my way
In spades
I need a school
So many times
Caught up in my head at night
With a leash and label.
If I can learn
Anything from this
Then I’d be like
The fox in the fable, oh right
If I still fight
It’s just that I’m
Afraid I’ll slide under that spell again
The way we used to carry on
You’re stuck in my head like a terrible song
Take him for a fool
Yes, I was
And I was a fool
Following their rules
Guess I wasn’t very honest too
Take him for a fool
(Take him for a fool)
Yes, I was
Because I was a fool
Take him for a fool
