we're walking contradictions

and toothless we try to bite

we live up to our standards

though we know they ain't right

fools we always stand up to fight when nothing's left to win

we draw the shades when we're bothered

ignorance is our twin



We've got our fancy but empty preconceived life

instance of how we wondered why we're seldom satisfied



but only the fools will applaud this strange self-deception

but only the fools will believe in resurrection of ideals in purest form



they're the first who have claimed their piece

and then the first who will ask for release



why do we sanction their means with a nod

boasting the absolute freedom of thought

we are fools

we hide with pride behind tolerant words

neglecting the fact that we've been lured

we are fools

we are fools



but only the fools will applaud this strange self-deception

but only the fools will believe in resurrection of ideals in purest form



they're the first who have claimed their piece

and then the first who will ask for release
