[Intro]
I'm paranoid
I'm a selfish boy
I'm running scared
I'm ill prepared
[Verse 1]
Scissors paper rock & roll
This dice is out of control
Should I be learning or earning or burning or turning my life
Inside outside upside down
People ask what I want to be
Is me an answer to that?
Cause everybody's somebody's nobody's anybody's
Going nobody nowhere man
[Pre-Chorus]
Kiss the pretty girls
Drink yourself to sleep
Sniff away the pain
Love them and then leave
[Chorus]
You're a silly fool
What are you trying to prove?
[Verse 2]
Scissors cut your dreams in half
Paper pushing pens all day
Rock until you drop lead dead on a stage
Overdosed on c**aine
Or work from seven to seven for seven days a week
Study for six years work a 60 hour week
Family, relationships don't you miss this
Your Mrs is sure you'll get that promotion by Christmas
Playing shows every night and day
Wondering what a home life's like
No son no daughter no house by the water
No family dog cat or wife
[Pre-Chorus]
Kiss the pretty girls
Drink yourself to sleep
Sniff away the pain
Love them and then leave
[Chorus]
You're a silly fool
What are you trying to prove?
[Bridge]
You're not alone
I'm here with you
Spirit soaked tears
Today is when you choose
[Chorus]
You're a silly fool
What are you trying to prove?
Why don't you give it up?
You waited long enough
