Motionless In White - Fool's Gold lyrics
[Motionless In White - Fool's Gold lyrics]
I won't let you burn me, cheat and destroy me
Bleed and exploit me, then preach of your loyalty
If only your heart was as honest as your lust for a profit
You'll see what you threw away
You're selling fool's gold
Get what you give
See through the blindfold
Beneath the skin
Now you're playing with fire
It's never gonna stop
Climb higher and higher to be on top
Tell me friend, is it fully becoming the enemy
Your castle's burning down
You see yourself a victim
Distorting the rhythm to chase the crown
Preying on misfortune
You tell the tale of idle common ground
You're selling fool's gold
No, I didn't see
See through the blindfold
See through the roles that you play
Now you're playing with fire
It's never gonna stop
Climb higher and higher to be on top
Tell me friend, is it fully becoming the enemy
Your fantasy is falling down
There will come a day
With no one left to sing your song
And in the end
No one will mourn you when you're gone
No one will mourn you when you're gone
Deceiver, greed is a fever
Betrayal is cheaper
You're starting to crack
(Knife in my back)
You're crossing your fingers
The joke of you lingers
You're starting to crack
And now you can't buy it back
Still playing with fire
You're never gonna stop
No sense of remorse or an afterthought
Watch you hang from the rope
As you reach out your hand to me
Erase the memories
(Still playing with fire
You're never gonna stop
No sense of remorse or an afterthought)
Erase the memories
I hear your voice but know not your face
What once was meaningful has all but faded away
Bleed and exploit me, then preach of your loyalty
If only your heart was as honest as your lust for a profit
You'll see what you threw away
You're selling fool's gold
Get what you give
See through the blindfold
Beneath the skin
Now you're playing with fire
It's never gonna stop
Climb higher and higher to be on top
Tell me friend, is it fully becoming the enemy
Your castle's burning down
You see yourself a victim
Distorting the rhythm to chase the crown
Preying on misfortune
You tell the tale of idle common ground
You're selling fool's gold
No, I didn't see
See through the blindfold
See through the roles that you play
Now you're playing with fire
It's never gonna stop
Climb higher and higher to be on top
Tell me friend, is it fully becoming the enemy
Your fantasy is falling down
There will come a day
With no one left to sing your song
And in the end
No one will mourn you when you're gone
No one will mourn you when you're gone
Deceiver, greed is a fever
Betrayal is cheaper
You're starting to crack
(Knife in my back)
You're crossing your fingers
The joke of you lingers
You're starting to crack
And now you can't buy it back
Still playing with fire
You're never gonna stop
No sense of remorse or an afterthought
Watch you hang from the rope
As you reach out your hand to me
Erase the memories
(Still playing with fire
You're never gonna stop
No sense of remorse or an afterthought)
Erase the memories
I hear your voice but know not your face
What once was meaningful has all but faded away
