Briston Maroney “Fool’s Gold”
Intro
Verse 1
I hate to say it, but I think I'm getting too old
The conversations that my mind won’t even let me hold
Your attention isn't worth my weight in fool's gold
Wanna let go, can I let go?
Started talking and you couldn’t look in my eyes
Told me stories 'bout you drinking on the 4th of July
Every little truth, it turned into a big lie
Why do I try? Why do I
try?
Pre-Chorus
If I hold my breath 'til
I fall asleep
Will
it be there when I wake?
Chorus
Maybe we can
take some
time
Move out
west where we can
do this
right
Broken
clock still keep
s the
time
Who sa
ys I've got to s
tay in a
line?
I'm so
sick of these
city
lights
Every
thing here's
black and
white
I don't
know where
I went
wrong
But I
surely
did to
night
Verse 2
It just me or is this music playing too loud?
All the kids dressed in black really getting me down
Mother warned about hanging with the wrong crowd
Gotta get out, gotta get out
Don't give a fuck if you intended to ignore me
Wish that I could close my eyes and just go back to sleep
That’s your best friend and she’s passed out in the backseat
She needs you more than me
Pre-Chorus
If I fall asleep with
my hands held tight
They'd be there when I wake
Chorus
Maybe we can
take some
time
Move out
west where we can
do this
right
Broken
clock still keep
s the
time
Who sa
ys I've got to s
tay in a
line?
I'm so
sick of these
city
lights
Every
thing here's
black and
white
And she&rs
quo;s ca
lling
me to bed
But I
will not
sleep ton
ight
Instrumental
Outro
N.C.
I have a tendency to overthink in my head
N.C.
Let’s just listen to some music and go back to bed
N.C.
Probably didn't hear a single word that I said
Just forget it until the morn
