Love Finds the Fool

I was such a fool to give myself to women that didn't know my worth to play a game that wasn't worth my time to live a life that wasn't worth the lies to be a person that I now despise I was a fool to let vanity rule to be used as a tool to let my ego grow bigger than my heart to try and be something I'm not I was just a silly boy playing hide and seek always hiding behind a cellophane me   I was such a silly boy thinking I couldn't be found but the songs I thought I was singing in my head were sung out loud it was only a matter of time before someone heard my tune and found it pleasant to dance to i was elated so i danced too If you know love then you know what it can make you do It takes love to form a better you Lust kept me ignorant Lust kept me hidden Lust is not true Love made me blossom Love made me wise Love opened my eyes Love destroyed the boy I despise
