So I'm a fool What does that entail? Is it because I walk this endless road? Faceless and alone Never stopping to settle myself In all the crevices of life Or is it because I revel in the mystery? Stealing stars from the sky Lapping at dew that tastes like poison As the sun beats me down I am just a carnivore With an empty stomach I think I'll hatch a harebrained scheme One to form and mold my self-worth Is this wonderland all out of wonder? Or after all this debating Am I just a politician With an empty stomach? April emerges with little ambition And it will fade as swiftly with similar intentions So I am proud to be its fool Careless and divided Never aiming for the spoils Just watching out for the watchers

The Fools of April
So I'm a fool What does that entail? Is it because I walk this endless road? Faceless and alone Never stopping to settle myself In all the crevices of life Or is it because I revel in the mystery? Stealing stars from the sky Lapping at dew that tastes like poison As the sun beats me down I am just a carnivore With an empty stomach I think I'll hatch a harebrained scheme One to form and mold my self-worth Is this wonderland all out of wonder? Or after all this debating Am I just a politician With an empty stomach? April emerges with little ambition And it will fade as swiftly with similar intentions So I am proud to be its fool Careless and divided Never aiming for the spoils Just watching out for the watchers
