Manipulated romance ... pretty speeches in the dark ... banging on your

big drum ... you captivate

... their hearts ... but underneath the mask ... is a man of straw ... a

master of excuses ... closing

every door ...



I don't wanna hear your name. I don't wanna feel your pain. I don't have

to play your

game. I'm stronger, things have changed, I'm no longer in fools, fools

paradise ... fools

paradise ...



Your poetic inspiration ... is a work of art ... but your obsession with

the glory ... rules a

self-centered heart ... accumulative hatred ... living in fear ... and

when the bitterness is over ...

another victim reappears ...



CHORUS



I don't wanna hear ... your ... name ... I don't wanna feel ... your ...

pain ... I'm no longer in fool's

... fool's paradise
