Foolish Minds

V1- Have you decided my heart’s in your hands Am I devoted or at your command All my decisions have led to this ground Blazing a trail, with the face of a clown V2- What do / you see / looking / at me Something / worthy / someone / thinking Do I deserve an emotional voice Cast like a child to the whim of your choice C- Always / looking / straight through me (It’s all in your head) Acting / like I’m / crazy (That’s not what I said) I’ve got some barbs on the tip of my tongue Biting them back, cos they’ve already stung I just / need you / all to see (What’s wrong with my eyes?) Past what you think I am (I think you’re just fine) I’ve got ambitions that threaten your name Making new rules, while you’re playing your games V3- I’ll sing for money, I’ll sing for fame Dance like a monkey, while cursing your name I lack the power to turn it around Eyes burning bright, in the face of a clown V4- I put / my best / face on / for you You see/ exactly / what you / want to Cherish the thought of subservient glee I’ll ride the crest of that dichotomy C- Always / looking / straight through me (It’s all in your head) Acting / like I’m / crazy (That’s not what I said) I’ve got some barbs on the tip of my tongue Biting them back, cos they’ve already stung I just / need you / all to see (What’s wrong with my eyes?) Past what you think I am (I think you’re just fine) I’ve got ambitions that threaten your name Making new rules, while you’re playing your games Solo- C- Am I / getting / through to you (Why can’t you just smile) That’s not / something / I can do (Don’t act like a child) Takes a bit longer to change foolish minds I’d wait my turn, but I don’t have the time Someday / you may / understand I’m much more than you think I am Takes a bit longer to change foolish minds I’d wait my turn, but I don’t have the time
