A Fool's Paradise

I'm a fool's paradise
Let deception roll the dice
Irresistible lies, how can I blame ya?
Vanity is a vice in a charming disguise
There's no end to this ride, but how can I blame ya?

I will run, run, run from you
I will make you chase me till I get bored of you

But can you earn it all the way?
Are you enough to make me stay?
Or will I tear you apart with just a word?
But can you handle all of me, or will it be you who runs away?
I ain't got the time to hear you whine about us

Bittersweet is my love, darling, why so serious?
Didn't you want this first? What are you scared of?
You sure do act so tough, and I like it, oh so rough!
And you look so nervous, what are you scared of?

I will run, run, run from you
I will make you chase me till I get bored of you

But can you earn it all the way?
Are you enough to make me stay?
Or will I tear you apart with just a word?
But can you handle all of me, or will it be you who runs away?
I ain't got the time to hear you whine about us

You're unsure of what you want
You seem hesitant to play
Darling don't you fall too hard
'Cause you know what they say
There is no fun without pain

But can you earn it all the way?
Are you enough to make me stay?
Or will I tear you apart with just a word?
But can you handle all of me, or will it be you who runs away?
I ain't got the time to hear you whine about us
