Playing the Fool
What does the truth really mean
For the man who has everything he needs?
What does change really bring
For the man who lives in an alternate reality?
What makes this man higher than he?
What makes this man blameless and free?
Why is he afraid of the truth?
Why does he insist on playing the fool?
Hide your children's eyes behind a screen
Or risk the sight of a fellow sinful being
Hide behind your selfish fears
And live inside these walls of hypocrisy
What makes this man higher than he?
What makes this man blameless and free?
Why is he afraid of the truth?
Why does he insist on playing the fool?
What did he do to offend the population?
Can't we detect sanctimonious behavior?
And I'm caught up in my own frustration
We fall into the comfort of complacence
Oh complacence
Why is he afraid of the truth?
Why does he insist on playing the fool?
For the man who has everything he needs?
What does change really bring
For the man who lives in an alternate reality?
What makes this man higher than he?
What makes this man blameless and free?
Why is he afraid of the truth?
Why does he insist on playing the fool?
Hide your children's eyes behind a screen
Or risk the sight of a fellow sinful being
Hide behind your selfish fears
And live inside these walls of hypocrisy
What makes this man higher than he?
What makes this man blameless and free?
Why is he afraid of the truth?
Why does he insist on playing the fool?
What did he do to offend the population?
Can't we detect sanctimonious behavior?
And I'm caught up in my own frustration
We fall into the comfort of complacence
Oh complacence
Why is he afraid of the truth?
Why does he insist on playing the fool?
