Fool’s gold Lyrics by Mars Aspen

Rosewater

2021

[Verse 1]
This minute I think
That things aren't so grim
Life changes its course
Why is this sink or swim?

Try floating away
From feeling worn down
My ankles are shackled now
I'm left on the ground

[Chorus]
Am I a fool to want to be happier than what I can foresee?
If joy's a lie, then paint it in gold
'Cause I want to want it, even if it's just a hope
Even if it's just a hope

[Verse 2]
I'm losing my shit, motivation's run dry
And all I can do is sit right here and cry
It's crazy that one feeling can destroy
Somebody's whole mind, break it like it's a toy

[Chorus]
Am I a fool to want to be happier than what I can foresee?
If joy's a lie, then paint it in gold
'Cause I want to want it, even if it's just a hope
Even if it's just a hope

[Bridge]
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh

[Chorus]
Am I a fool to want to be happier than what I can forеsee?
If joy's a lie, then paint it in gold
'Cause I want to want it, еven if it's just a hope
Even if it's just a hope
Mmm... mmm...
