about

This song was one of the first songs I’d ever written. It started years ago after hearing a random melody in my head and became more real and honest after an awful breakup. Fool is a blend of jazz, blues, and rock with unconventional chord progressions leading the way.

lyrics

Baby…
Sun seeping through the window pain
You had your little game
Like I knew you would
Cruel victim in truest form
Caught in your secret storm
But I’ll push you down

A fool you made me
The name you gave me
When I said you weren’t true
Your bold and unafraid
To lie to my face and say
I was never there for you… well

I’ll tell you something
I’m not falling
For your tricks
For your lies
This is it
Say goodbye
‘Cause you’re playing cruel
Now who’s the fool

Love you’ve got your fatal flaw
I’m not at your beck and call
But someone is
Lies packed up so deep within
Your digging in my skin
The pain runs through

There’s nobody in the world but you
You whisper every night
And yet I see you holding and kissing
Another guy

I’ll tell you something
I’m not falling
For your tricks
For your lies
This is it
Say goodbye
‘Cause you’re playing cruel
Now who’s the fool

Your words are like bullets
I’m hit every time
I put up my shield
Now it’s your turn
To feel the burn

I’ll tell you something
I’m not falling
For your tricks
For your lies
This is it
Say goodbye
‘Cause you’re playing cruel
Now who’s the...

I’ll tell you something
I’m not falling
For your tricks
For your lies
This is it
Say goodbye
‘Cause you’re playing cruel
Now you the fool.
