"fool" lyrics

"fool"

Oh, eighteen, he's crackin' open a Bible
Give him a chisel and a shovel and he's chippin' at it 'til he retires
The sun goes down over west Carolina
And he's pickin' on the six-string, prayin' to be what he desires
And don't be fooled if you want to get by him
But he gotta stop livin' in the past 'cause he's selling something nobody's buyin'
How will I make this change?
You know I love you and I'd die for you?
I tried to give what I could offer you
I know my selfish ways
You know I love you and I'd die for ya?
I'd do this right here, right now
I will stand and walk this down
I will make my family proud
You say you want me, then you're runnin' and I'm fine with it
You can deliver me the letter with your name on it

You've always held your secrets inside ya
I was broke, I was dumb, and a liar
I was bathing in delusional fire
I'm easy to blame 'cause I'm right there
I wanted to be where you are
You said you'd see me at the end of the night
And you know I am, and you know what I do and I want to be honest with you
Stop takin' the blame for it all
You don't believe me 'cause I'm walkin' in silence
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh

I never felt like I was such a damn fool
Nobody wants me the way that I want you
You got me invested, now you got a problem
You gave me something to hold in the hurricane
I was a nothing to you, but you're chasin'
And all I can see there is you
Can't you see that I made it?
You don't want to see me, do you?

Thanks, guys
