Island Of Fools
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Shatter the illusions
Of the world that you believed in long ago
You can let go
Nothing's sacred, can't survive
You'll reach the end
On borrowed time
But you must try
Just save yourself
There is nothing to hide but the truth
There's no one else
Here beside you
Please save yourself
'Cause you don't have a moment to lose
The time will tell
If you're meant to survive on your own
Crying for redemption
It's a mystery below and broken your heart
And left you scared
The time is now
There's no recourse
It's only what you see and what you are
I know it's hard
Just save yourself
There is nothing to hide but the truth
There's no one else
Here beside you
Please save yourself
'Cause you don't have a moment to lose
The time will tell
If you're meant to survive on your own
On your own
And when you see
The promise of what life should be
The destiny
You must believe
The courage is all that you need
That's all you need
(All you need)
Save yourself
There is nothing to hide but the truth
No one else
Here beside you
Save yourself
Or you're lost on this island of fools
Time will tell
If you're meant to survive on your own
