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
