My excuse is only human

Like any animal that breathes

Just to find a scent that's soothing

I give you power over me



I'm more weak than strong

And not a stranger to a fall

But I won't leave you

Till I turn to find you gone

I'm the biggest fool of all



There's no path of least resistance

It's a fable that you've heard

Any love that lacks conviction

Is gonna grovel in the dirt

God this road is long

And surrounded by a wall

But I won't leave you

'Til I turn to find you gone

I'm the biggest fool of all



Foolish as the prisoner

That listens for the jangling keys

And smart enough to know

That it's crazy I should run

When you've got no claim on me



So before your panic taunts you

To make relations disappear

You could help to ease my conscience

If just for once by standing here

I'm more weak than strong

And surrounded by a wall

But I won't leave you

'Til I turn to find you gone

I'm the biggest fool of all
