I'm Such A Foolish Dame Read Count : 53

Why do I keep setting myself up
For the proverbial fall
I know I've got a loving heart
I know that I am kind
Yet this doesn't seem to matter at all

Even though I keep wanting to believe
It seems that all these jokers know how to do
Is deceive deceive deceive

I've been a fool for so freakin long
That even though the beat has changed
They're still playing
That same ol song

You would think
After all these years
And the pain I've been through
That I'd be quicker to walk away
Not hoping there's someone out there
Someone to grow old with
Someone who'll actually stay

Honestly
I'm mad at myself
For wanting so much to believe
When pain disappointment and
Lie after lie after lie
Is all I ever receive

Maybe by writing this
It will open up my eyes
And help me say to hell with them
Their bogus lines
And
Their never ending lies

I deserve to be happy
This I know is true
So I'm just gonna work on me
And
Keep on keepin on
Crank up my favorite tune
And sing it loud
And sing it long

If me being happy
Means me doing me
Then look out world
Cuz here I come
Happy Beautiful and Free
