The Snake Always Warns The Fool Never Listens

We’re all irrelevant here 
In the greater scheme of things 
Nothing matters in this life
It’s all redundant and reductive

Easy come easy gone
Here and gone in a flash 
What could be
A fantasy or hopefulness 
No one would care
Or mourn your dream but you. 

Despite you and me
Everything we were and are
Your lover and friend
Everyone you could give to
You chose in spite of me

Foolish fools who are we
Clinging on to the past
Bless it be
That we can be more than all this 
Or something else
If nothing more than you 

Despite you and me
Everything we were and are
Your lover and friend
Everyone you could give to
You chose in spite of me

I’ve tried and tried to understand you 
You aren’t an enigma you’re a basket case
Every time I reach in to understand 
I’m bitten by another anomaly. 
(The snake always warns the fool never listens and yet)

We’re all irrelevant here 
In the greater scheme of things 
Nothing matters in this life
It’s all redundant and reductive

Despite you and me
Everything we were and are
Your lover and friend
Everyone you could give to
You chose in spite of me
