Towering Fool Lyrics - Mulennium - Gov't Mule

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? 

Photos 

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?
