Only Fools
Echoes of Wisdom: Unveiling Life's Choices in Pioneer Salesmen's 'Only Fools'
Lyrics
You seem to know exactly how I feel
You understand my emotions very well
There's nothing more to life I'm for real
Life has no more to offer, and I genuinely mean it
How do you say the words they long to hear
How do you express the words someone desires to hear?
Because I've tried before
I attempted to express myself previously
But my vision ain't so clear
My understanding or perspective is not clear
If only I could have my way
If I had control over the situation
I'd tell you some things I've been dying to say
I would share thoughts I've long wanted to express
Only fools leave this place
Only foolish individuals would leave this situation
And I can't afford to escape
I cannot afford to escape from my current circumstances
In my mind I have seen your good grace
In my thoughts, I have witnessed your kindness
But there's not much else I can take
But there's a limit to what I can endure
It's no lie that you find yourself in fear
It's true that fear arises within you
In times of change the falsehoods reappear
In times of change, false beliefs resurface
But you play the game like nobody else could
You engage in life's challenges uniquely
And still you're not living like you should
Yet, you're not living up to your potential
What is done is done for good
Actions taken are irreversible
Think of a place where you felt understood
Recall a place where you felt truly understood
Only fools leave this place
Leaving the current situation is a foolish choice
And I can't afford to escape
I'm unable to escape my present reality
In my mind I have seen your good grace
In my thoughts, I've witnessed your kindness
But there's not much else I can take
But there's a limit to what I can endure
In the evening I'll be yours to keep
In the evening, I'll be committed to you
When, if ever, will you see what I mean
When will you understand what I'm trying to convey?
And how can you say anything at all?
How can you express anything when life is stagnant?
When your life's slowed to a crawl
Your life has come to a standstill
