Fools Paradise

Donna Lewis

Manipulated romance ...
pretty speeches in the dark ...
banging on your big drum ...
you captivate ...
their hearts ...
but underneath the mask ...
is a man of straw ...
a master of excuses ...
closing every door ...
I don't wanna hear your name.
I don't wanna feel your pain.
I don't have to play your game.
I'm stronger, things have changed,
I'm no longer in fools, fools paradise ...
fools paradise ...
Your poetic inspiration ...
is a work of art ...
but your obsession with the glory ...
rules a self-centered heart ...
accumulative hatred ...
living in fear ...
and when the bitterness is over ...
another victim reappears ...

CHORUS
I don't wanna hear ... your ... name ...
I don't wanna feel ... your ... pain ...
I'm no longer in fool's ... fool's paradise ...
