I craved for more for As long as I remember Tailor-made Italian suit A brand new sports car That penthouse with a Postcard city view So I sold my soul for it Gave away my innocence Scarred my mental health Lost my very joie de vivre In the process of chasing Those shinny promises But now that I got there I realize that I fought for No more than fool's gold Useless junk that'll never Fill the void that is to exist Being a broken thing

Fool's gold
I craved for more for As long as I remember Tailor-made Italian suit A brand new sports car That penthouse with a Postcard city view So I sold my soul for it Gave away my innocence Scarred my mental health Lost my very joie de vivre In the process of chasing Those shinny promises But now that I got there I realize that I fought for No more than fool's gold Useless junk that'll never Fill the void that is to exist Being a broken thing
Hope the future brings some perspective...
