Fools Errand/Fools Gold Lyrics

Follow your fools errand to fools gold
Chart your path
One thousand paces in, will you notice only your dog is in the fight?
You wear a personality like a disguise.

The newspaper's front page headline
You can't ignore it. No, not this time.

Thinking, we're above the trends again?
When we are just fading footsteps in an empty lot.

Like a kid dressed in blood to look tough
I'm holding out from hands out-of-touch.
This town is gonna take all I've got and more, I'm sure.
I'm trying to believe what I read and what you tell me
But this city isn't looking to you or me.

The newspaper's front page headline
You can't ignore it. No, not this time.

Thinking, we're above the trends again?
When we are just fading footsteps in an empty lot.
