Pleasures of Fools

I can recognize treachery

Especially when displayed in a gallery

To turn my future over to the limbs of deceit

Corroborates a picture perfect defeat

As my days draw to an end

I wanna be proud that I did apprehend

All personal goals for an everlasting payment

Conveyed on the pinions of personal achievement

Because trading my soul for the pleasures of fools

Is exactly what I require to fold and lose.
