[Verse 1]

Face toward the shoreline You turned away from me Act like a bad boy

You used to crave me Giving your reasons to run

I know it’s all bullshit

And I can see you in the sun Looks like you’ve grown on Without me


[Chorus]

Don’t give me your hand I don’t want it back

I’m taking my stand

I’ve painted you black


[Verse 2]

All of the hours

Spent with you in my head

Oh, under starry skies

Or with me in your bed

I grew out of the tree I was born into While you remained

Now I’d be a fool to cave into its root Cuz you’ve moved on


[Chorus]

Don’t give me your hand I don’t want it back

I’m taking my stand

I’ve painted you black


[Outro]

I’d be a fool to surrender my name I’d be a fool to surrender my fate


[Instrumental Break]

I’d be a fool...
