 Left Chevron Three

Not the Same Fool


I've lived may lives, in this life alone,
Unable to strive, unable to grow,
Buried alive,
Pushed back to the start,
A cursed, hexed soul with unprecedented heart.

I've make many strides, in search of myself,
I've played with the cards that I was dealt,
I've entered a world with no choice of my own,
And now I am forced, to put on a show.

I've questioned my place in a place without truth,
A rebel without reason that is losing his youth,
Regretting the past and now losing some more,
Fighting a ghost that I still can't ignore.

Envious, bitter, forgotten, and old,
A fiery legend, left out in the cold.

Nobody listens when you sing the same tune,
But time has brought change,
And I'm not the same fool.
