Fools Paradise

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 ...
