lyrics

Here's your poem
the only one I ever wrote.
It's from the heart,
yet lacking any
flames or sparks.
So just tear it apart.

And when you complain that romance is dead
I'll say “it is not true, it's only you.”
Cause you've given up on the trials of love.
You've got a foolish heart, you try too hard.

Lover so gracefully
you trade your bows
for delusions of grandeur
that you've made up.
So just tear it apart.

And when you complain that romance is dead
I'll say “it is not true, it's only you.”
Cause you've given up on the trials of love.
You've got a foolish heart, you try too hard.

And you cried with your jewelry tears
onto your painted mirror.

And when you complain that romance is dead
I'll say “it is not true, it's only you.”
Cause you've given up on the trials of love.
You've got a foolish heart, you try too hard.
You yearn for the loves that have come and gone.
Foolish heart, you try too hard.
When you complain that romance is dead, I'll say
“It is not true, it's only you, fool.”
