Lizard In Paris – A Lying Fool lyrics

You can't fight the wind
Blowing in your face
You can never win
A race without a chase

You can't hide away
In an open space
And you can't live a day
With a dying faith

I've learned it all, I did
And while gritting my teeth
I built my fortress strong and still

Tell me I'm a little frail
Well I got nothing to prove
Tell me I don't know a thing
I think you're a lying fool
Rise and shine dear soldier
The war gives us no excuse
Tell me I'm so insane
I tell you I'll catch that train
Tell me you're a real man
I think you speak in vain
Rise and shine dear soldier
The war is over and you lose

You can't build a world
Without a maker's soul
And you can never hold
What you have never known

You can't let it go
Until you've felt your pain
And you can never burn
'Till you become the rain

I've learned it all, I did
And while gritting my teeth
I built my fortress strong and still

Tell me I'm a little frail
Well I got nothing to prove
Tell me I don't know a thing
I think you're a lying fool
Rise and shine dear soldier
The war gives us no excuse
Tell me I'm so insane
I tell you I'll catch that train
Tell me you're a real man
I think you speak in vain
Rise and shine dear soldier
The war is over and you lose

I wake up from the storm
I feel my colors burn
I smell the air I know
I live again reborn

You can tell me I'm a hopeless child
You can tell me I won't be alright
Rise and shine
Rise and shine
Rise and shine soldier
Our victory will come
So come
You can tell me I will take the fall
You can tell me I won't fly, but crawl
Rise and shine dear soldier
You see nothing
Nothing at all
