A Fools Revenge

Revenge is bittersweet, if you’d like to have your cake and eat it too.
Though for all our sakes, I think it’s best just left to be.
But sometimes I really feel that, I’d like to blow you all away.
Oh, but then I see the truth, is the only thing that can set me free…
But I’ll get you back.
I’ll get you back…

One lamplit night the present woke to some disturbance.
And from a window they could see the scene unfurling.
Just then the words appear, before their very eyes;
‘The way to hell is pathed with good intentions!’

I’ve been waiting so long, for a moment.
Working up to fix it, but it’s broken.
Silently enslaving, letting go of all you are.
Waking in the moment, of a life…

Thoughts meandering with tortuous absurdity.
‘Is it for you or I to know which way the wind blows?’
All in a wrung, the sound screaming from those lungs;
“Just let me live! I’ve got so much left to give…)

Waiting for this moment, for so long.
Working up to fix it, but it’s broken.
Synchroincedences all around me.
Escaping from this moment, all alive…
All alive…
For all of life…
For all of your life…

You only got to play it.
You only got to learn to play it.
You got to want to play it.

I’ve been waiting so long, for a moment.
Working up to fix it, but it’s broken.
Synchroincedences all around me.
I don’t want to play it, it’s a fools game…
It’s a fools game…
It’s just a fools game…
It’s just a silly fools game…

And I’m not playing any more!
