Fly, you greatest fool
Why can't you say what they want you to?
Why can't you do what they taught you?
And show what they wanted of you?
Fly, you greatest fool
Is this what everyone talked about?
You'll spill your high flung phrases
And hush when the risk gets too much
And I, I wish you would do one
Then I'd never have to notice if the bridges are burnt
Is this what everyone talked about?
Swallow anything that suits
Dress it up as truth
Swallow it all down
And I, I wish you would do one
Then I'd never have to notice if the bridges are burnt
And I, I wish you would do one
Then I'd never have to notice if the bridges are burnt
so cold out here
