IT'S NOT ONLY GOLD BUT FOOL'S GOLD THAT GLISTENS

IT'S NOT ONLY GOLD BUT FOOL'S GOLD THAT GLISTENS

Unless you talk how will you know what is true

No one is perfect and that applies to you

All you hear is one side

Did it ever occur to you that they lied

I never thought you to be so gullible

Always believed in your integrity and were reliable

But OMG you're still the fool

You played according to the liars rules

There's something you should know

Liars never prosper and fair-weather friends always go

They cry crocodile tears all too often

And when you need an ear to listen and shoulder to lean on

You'll find with a click of their heels they'll turn and run

Letting you down and on to their next victim 

To tell more tales, deceit, fabrication and lies

Take your head out of the sand open your ears and your eyes

Listen to your soul for it knows what is true

For if you opened your heart you'd hear it talking to you

Many hide under a guise

Create an empty facade and pull the wool over your eyes

Your heart knows who's real and who's not all they say

I hope the truth will dawn on you one day

It would have been sooner had you listened

Its not only gold but fool's gold that glistens.
