The Fool

Now I won't be alone Despite my best efforts With an engaged phone And a door that stayed locked for years I'm surprised that the hinges Didn't blow out my ears When you came in It was a world in storm And all those awful things Became a simple chore In the place i lived You made a house a home And with a flick of your wrist You let out the ghost Now the fool you knew Is now a fool for you It would seem the best laid plans I've been standing on Have fallen through There's no sword no more There's no hail of bullets From a cold-eye draw All the pictures came off the wall I was trapped in their frames In everyone i was falling But when you came in It was a world in storm And all those awful things Became a simple chore In the place i lived You made a house a home And with a flick of your wrist You let out the ghost Now the fool you knew Is now a fool for you It would seem the best laid plans I've been standing on Just fell through The fool you knew Is now a fool for you It would seem the best laid plans I've been standing on Have fallen through The fool you knew Is now a fool for you It would seem the best laid plans That we stand on, we get a handle on And then fall through
