Manipulated romance

Pretty speeches in the dark

Banging on your big drum

You captivate their hearts

But underneath the mask

Is a man of straw

A master of excuses

Closing every door

And I don't wanna hear your name

I don't wanna feel your pain

And I don't have to play your game

I'm stronger and things have changed

I'm no longer in fools fools paradise

I'm no longer in fools fools paradise

Fools paradise

Your poetic inspiration

Is a work of art

But your obsession with the glory

Rules a self centered heart

Accumulative hatred living in fear

And when the bitterness is over

Another victim reappears

So I don't wanna hear your name

I don't wanna feel your pain

And I don't have to play your game

I'm stronger and things have changed

I'm no longer in fools fools paradise

Fools paradise

I don't wanna hear your name

I don't wanna feel your pain

I'm no longer in fools

Fools paradise

I'm no longer in fools
