The More Fool
I
You found everything you ever wanted
When you looked into her eyes.
So eager to believe her,
You ate up all her lies.
You just smiled and nodded
When she said the rain was snow,
But now you've finally caught her
And one of you will have to go.
You thought she'd be your perfect one,
You thought you'd call this "love".
She left your heart in shattered pieces,
Left you to rage at Heav'n above.
She laughed, you cried.
She left, you died.
The more fool you.
II
I never loved you
I never cared
I was only with you
because you were there.
You took care of me
You were always there
You were only with me
because you really cared.
The more fool you.
III
You couldn't change me,
Couldn't make me see.
You simply loved me,
And waited for me.
I wasted my chance,
And squandered my turn.
You wasted your tear,
And watched me burn.
The more fool I.
IV
The more fool both of us.
