All Fools' Day

It's all fools' day
Facing my fate now
Finally learning to fail
It's a fool's way
To aim for infinity
And watch myself go off the rails

So, I'm leaving home
Aim high
And fake it 'til I make it on my own
But the light of day
Shows that
It's not the story I've been told
All that glitters isn't gold
The wind here at the top can be so cold

It's all fools' day
Facing my fate now
I'm finally learning to fail

It's a fool's way
To aim for infinity
And watch myself go off the rails

So
Only yesterday
I created an identity to show off for my friends
But I lost my way
Just like an addict who's about to score
I had it all but wanted more
What was an itch became an open sore

It's all fools' day
Facing my fate now
Finally learning to fail

It's a fools way
To aim for infinity
Then watch it all go off the rails

I built my house on sand
And friendships didn't mean a damn
The love I got was always second hand

I'd fought to get to where I am
But turned into a brand and not a man

It's all fools' day
Facing my fate now
Finally learning to fail

It's a fool's way
To fight off insanity
And hope common sense will prevail
