Fool for You
Fool for You: Embracing Love's Pain
Lyrics
Should I be ashamed that I'd rather stay insane
Feeling conflicted about preferring insanity over the same pain.
In the same pain
Choosing to remain in the familiar pain.
Choose to bruise blue
Opting for emotional wounds that manifest as the color blue.
Feel confused
Experiencing a state of confusion.
To know that I was used by you
Realizing being used by someone.
It was too good to be true
Reflecting on a situation that seemed too good to be true.
So I lose
Accepting defeat in a situation.
And you lose too
Noting that both parties suffer losses.
Look me in the eyes do you even recognize
Questioning if the other person recognizes the speaker in their eyes.
A stranger's face
Feeling like a stranger in an unfamiliar place.
The strangest place
Describing a situation as the strangest place.
So slick bullshit
Describing deceptive or insincere talk.
I'm a fool for you
Admitting to being a fool for the person addressed.
I'm not out for blood
Clarifying that there's no intention to seek revenge.
You know there's still love
Asserting that there is still love despite the situation.
Should I be ashamed that each night I lay awake
Questioning whether shame is appropriate for staying awake each night.
Til i fade away
Continuing to stay awake until fading away, possibly metaphorically.
Dare not to breathe your name
Choosing not to mention the person's name while breathing.
Oo I've come undone
Expressing a feeling of coming undone.
Looking back I know I jumped the gun
Regretting impulsive actions, specifically jumping the gun.
With a blade for a tongue
Describing communication with a sharp and hurtful tongue.
Cuts deep when we speak cuz you broke my heart last week
Noting emotional pain caused by a recent heartbreak.
Restless in the sheets can't sleep without a
Experiencing restlessness in bed due to emotional turmoil.
Spliff between my teeth
Using a spliff as a coping mechanism.
Won't admit to my defeat
Refusing to admit defeat in the face of challenges.
So slick bullshit
Repeating the idea of deceptive or insincere talk.
I'm a fool for you
Reiterating being a fool for the person addressed.
I'm not out for blood
Reiterating the absence of a desire for revenge.
You know there's still love
Affirming that love still exists despite the challenges.
