Fool's Gold

These streets are debilitating
 This city devours souls
 Leaves us tangled in the concrete
 Leaves us strangled in its chokehold
 These people have a personal vendetta
 Against anything that's real
 They'll do anything to create an illusion
 Do anything to conceal
 All the emptiness, the vacuous cavity
 Beneath a pretty face
 All the pettiness, the festering depravity
 Capped under an image of grace
 We have lost our faith in humanity
 And there is no questioning why
 There's nothing that I see here worth saving
 It took my life but I won't cry
 ♪
 I'd abandon it all without a tearful goodbye
 All that glitters in this town
 Never believe what you're told
 All that glitters in this town
 Too frequently is fool's gold
 ♪
 Something in the air tonight
 I almost forget where I am
 The future expands, the stars align
 And I begin to believe again
 There's something in the air tonight
 Something will carry me through
 And when you're standing by my side
 I know I've found the one thing that's true
 ♪
 Distortions have no power over me now
 The image warps against a torn facade now
 Distortions have no power over me now
 The image warps against a torn facade now
 ♪
 Something in the air tonight
 Something will carry me through
 And when you're standing by my side
 I know I've found the one thing that's true
 Something in the air tonight
 I begin to believe again
 The future expands, the stars align
 I almost forget where I am
 All that glitters in this town
 Never believe what you're told
 All that glitters in this town
 Too frequently is fool's gold
 All that glitters in this town
 Never believe what you're told
 All that glitters in this town
 Too frequently is fool's gold
