Fool
Dark Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can seize, I can freeze more than I require,
I'll bury you under these shelves.
We convene every day in a quenchless fire,
It's every man for himself.
I can't fight this irrational desire, I need and therefore I shall have.
We'll complain that the world has gone haywire,
Then burn everyone in our path.
We won't do as we're told,
What a sight to behold.

And we follow the cluster because we have to,
They panic and we follow suit.
And we swim through the hot water together,
Bathing in bitter dispute.
Now that I cannot leave I can feel the twitching,
I won't do what I have been told.
I can feel the revulsion, hear the bitching,
No fucks for the young nor the old.

We won't do as we're told,
What a sight to behold.

Open a hole in the ground, make a pit for all the
Fools who don't know how to turn around,
In a broken era.
Digital faces and sounds, they are here but not here,
Before we can breathe, we must drown,
Let's not wash ourselves away.

Waiting and praying for headaches of old.
Yearning and craving our fool's gold.

I can't fight this irrational desire,
I need and therefore I shall have.
We'll complain that the world has gone haywire,
Then burn everyone on our path.

We won't do as we're told,
What a sight to behold.

Open a hole in the ground, make a pit for all the
Fools who don't know how to turn around,
In a broken era.
Digital faces and sounds, they are here but not here,
Before we can breathe, we must drown,
Let's not wash ourselves away.





Waiting and praying for headaches of old.
Yearning and craving our fool's gold.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Dark's song Fool explore the theme of drug addiction and its destructive consequences. The opening lines of the song, "Why do you play with fire and run towards disaster?" suggests that the addict is aware of the risks they are taking, yet still cannot resist the temptation of drugs. The next line captures the dangerous effect of drugs on the addict's mind - "Your head is filled with drugs rid of all realizations" - indicating that they are disconnected from reality and unable to recognize the harm they are inflicting on themselves.


The following lines, "It slows time to a dimension you're flying through your brainspace / You've created a land of milk and honey where everything seems to be funny" describe the euphoric high experienced by the addict. The slowed-down perception of time, combined with the distorted reality created by drugs, creates a feeling of blissful escape where nothing can hurt them. However, this feeling is fleeting, and the next lines paint a darker picture - "You forget drugs' danger your life lost every kind of value / You fall into a hole but no one is there to help you". The addict has lost all sense of self-preservation and is on a downward spiral, with no one to help them.


The final lines of the song are a condemnation of the addict's choices - "You're a fucking fool with drugs you are a tool / You're lying with your stinking breath sorry you are near to death" - emphasizing that the addict's addiction has made them a slave to their impulses and that they have lost control over their life.

Sir you use workly rhetoric and
πŸ‘‰Not πŸ‘ˆbiblical terms. The Bible Totally contradicts your words.

You say: " In the most of darkness God can still bless. "

Jesus says: Titus 3:10
..." Warn a divisive person once, and then warn them a second time. After that, have nothing to do with them"

So you see we ( believers ) don't confer with darkness but yet we ( believers) expose it

Sir please pray for wisdom and discernment and your trust in the flesh because you will be deceived.

TD Jakes is not preaching sound

2 Timothy 4:3-4Β 
For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths
