Take You for the Fool

8/8/03

 

Raise your eyes from viewing me

Stop the thoughts from spinning free

Forget all that you think you see

Stop the gavel judging me

 

Stock the shelves with your regret

Remember things you will forget

Love the ones you've never met

Avoid the people too self-set

 

Love is tough and love is blind

Talk is cheap, truth does not bind

Sometimes the truth's not always kind

The world you know is in your mind

 

But what you know and what you see

Is rarely what it seems to be

Your happiness will not be free

For you will not be fooling me
