"Poor Fool" lyrics
"Poor Fool"
Try not to think about it
Get dressed and come out tonight
You've been through this before and you know it's gonna' be alright
But you can't go out like that
Tuck in your shirt and comb your hair back
If you feel like crying just turn away until the feelings pass
Oh, poor fool (poor fool)
Oh, poor fool (poor fool)
No will to live, no will to choose, poor fool
Now the heart is a tricky thing
Yours, more than most
You spend your whole life wandering with a look on your face like you've seen a ghost
This ain't no haunting
And though it's no ordinary hurt
After all these years, you should know better, but you never learn
Oh, poor fool (poor fool)
Oh, poor fool (poor fool)
No will to live, no will to choose, poor fool
Now I think you like it
Better yet, I know you do
You fuss and you fight it, but your just an ordinary fool
So tuck your head back, close your eyes and take a long, deep breath
You're gonna' be alright, you just gotta' learn to try to forget
Oh, poor fool (poor fool)
Oh, poor fool (poor fool)
No will to live, no will to choose, poor fool

Crying into your sleeve
'Cause you miss those lovin' arms
A lullaby keeps on playing

Hayes Carll - "I Don't Wanna Grow Up" When I'm lyin' in my bed at night, I don't wanna grow up
Nothin' ever seems to turn out right, I don't wanna grow up
How do you move in a world of fog that's always changing things
Makes me wish that...
Son Volt - "Tear Stained Eye" Walking down Main Street
Getting to know the concrete
Looking for a purpose from a neon sign
I would meet you anywhere
The western sun meets the air
We'll hit the road, never looking behind
Can you...
