We're walking contradictions //
And toothless we try to bite //
We live up to our standards //
Though we know they are not right
We always stand up to fight - yeah //
When nothing's left to win //
We draw the shades when we're bothered //
Ignorance is our twin //
We've got our fancy empty preconceived life //
Still somehow we wonder why we're seldom satisfied
Only the fools //
Will applaud this strange self-deception //
Only the fools //
Will believe in resurrection of ideals in purest form //
We're the first to claim their piece //
And then the first to beg for release
Why do we sanction their means with a nod //
Boasting the absolute freedom of thought //
We are fools //
We hide with pride behind tolerant words //
Neglecting the fact that we've been lured //
We are fools, we are tools
Only the fools //
Will applaud this strange self-deception //
Only the fools //
Will believe in resurrection of ideals in purest form //
We're the first to claim their piece //
And then the first who beg for release
