Towering Fool lyrics

Artist  : Gov`t Mule 
Song : Towering Fool



 Send "Towering Fool" Ringtone to your Cell 

 

Yeah, somebody somewhere must have hurt
you
You must have been really abused
A
victim of your raising
Isn't that your
excuse
Towering Fool

In a dream I
watched you inflict yourself
On everyone
within reach
Now frozen in time I see it
still
Like a movie
How long has it been
since you shook the hand
Of those who fell
under your feet
And how long has it been since
you washed yours clean
From the blood and the
dirt of the street
Did you really think you
could just fly away
Fly right out of those
blues
Did you towering fool

Don't you
know greatness comes to those who can hold
it
Did it slip right through your hands
Did
it brush your sleeve as it passed you by
Do you
compare yourself now to then

All this pent
up anger
Don't you feel alone ranger
Don't
you towering fool

So you use every ounce
of your energy
To keep those around you
down
But there is a tear in the eye of the
ring master
And a smile on the face of the
clown
Yeah, you couldn't see through your own
arrogance
To what the whole world already
knew
You had to keep pushing it past the
point
Till it all crumbled down on
you
Didn't you towering fool
