You can lie to yourself, you can lie to the world

You can lie to the one you call your girl

You can humble yourself to the hearts that you stole

Wondering who's gonna love you when you grow old?



With a fistful of courage and a heart full of rage

I realized I'd locked myself in a cage

I'll be the one standing there with the watery eyes

I'll be the fool in the mirror asking you whyasking why



When I got to the end of my dirty rainbow

And I found that there was no pot of gold

Well, I learned that I was empty and not quite as strong

For I had robbed my heart and cheated my soul



Look for the one with the watery eyes

I'll be the fool in the mirror asking you why

Cursing lovers in a warm tender embrace

Scoffing at the world and the whole human race



Chorus:

You can run, you can hide

You can feed your foolish pride

You can use and abuse

In the end you'll always loseat the game



Chorus:

You can run, you can hide

You can feed your foolish pride

With the hearts that you stole

And an empty pot of gold

And the lover's warm embrace

And the whole damned human race

You can use and abuse

In the end you'll always loseat the game



";For I cheated myself at solitaire.";
