Fool's Gold
Chasing Shadows: Unveiling the Illusion of Fool’s Gold
Lyrics
Long time coming, like desert rain
Long-awaited, like rare desert rain.
It’s a love soft spoken, on a rough terrain
Expressing love in a gentle manner in a challenging situation.
It wears me out, but I’m back again
Fatigued, but returning despite challenges.
It’s a tourist trap, but I keep buying in
A deceptive attraction, yet continually investing in it.
I can’t keep going to that place
A realization of the need to break a cycle of behavior.
Digs deep ‘till my mind deteriorates
Persistent engagement leading to mental decline.
Doing the same thing and expecting something different is the definition of insanity
Highlighting the irrationality of repeating the same actions and expecting different outcomes.
But if you go back to the same spot and keep diggin’ it’s a self fulfilling prophecy
Continuing a pattern can make it a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Spill your guts that you’ve had enough, time to go back to the drawing board
Acknowledging dissatisfaction, suggesting a need for a fresh start.
Only way to up your spot on the payroll, stop digging for fool’s gold
Encouraging a shift away from fruitless pursuits, like seeking fool's gold.
It feeds the cycle, it impedes your thoughts
Repetition reinforces negative cycles, hindering clear thinking.
But you know it’s nothing, a meer mirage
Recognizing that the allure is insubstantial.
But you come right back though you swore it off
Returning despite previous vows to abstain.
Cause it feeds the cycle, impedes your thoughts
Reiterating the detrimental impact of repetitive behavior.
I can’t keep going to that place
Reiterating the challenge of breaking away from a harmful place.
Digs deep ‘till my mind it nearly breaks
The ongoing struggle has severe mental consequences.
Doing the same thing and expecting something different is the definition of insanity
Reiterating the futility of expecting change from the same actions.
If you go back to the same spot and keep diggin’ it’s a self fulfilling prophecy
Continued engagement perpetuates the expected outcome.
Spill your guts that you’ve had enough, time to go back to the drawing board
Expressing the need for a fundamental reevaluation.
Only way to up your spot on the payroll, stop digging for fool’s gold
Emphasizing the importance of avoiding deceptive pursuits for personal advancement.
Stop digging for fool’s gold
An outright directive to cease chasing fool's gold.
Stop digging for fool’s gold
Reiteration of the command to stop pursuing false promises.
Stop digging for fool’s gold
Further emphasis on the need to cease the futile search for deceptive rewards.
It feeds the cycle, impedes your thoughts
Restating the negative impact of repetitive behavior on thoughts.
You know it’s nothing, a meer mirage
Reaffirming the insubstantial nature of the allure.
It wears you out, but your back again
Experiencing exhaustion but returning despite it.
Cause’ it’s a tourist trap, but you keep buying in
Continuing to invest in a deceptive attraction despite its nature.
I can’t keep going to that place
Repetition of the difficulty in breaking away from a harmful place.
I can’t keep going to that place
-I can’t keep going to that place
-I can’t keep going to that place
-I can’t keep going to that place
-I can’t keep going to that place
-I can’t keep going to that place
Final emphasis on the challenge of avoiding a detrimental place.
