lyrics

The Fool

Let the ruin on through
I still wanna see you
I am to please you

I cleaned my house
Inside and out
Patient as this room

Thinking of you
Has your love gone and played me a fool?
Don't say what isn't true
I am me, and you are you
Am I the fool? Am I the fool?

Did you know I would
Love you more than I should
Well, I did not need you
Did not want to dream you, oh

There's a dead-end driving
Straight on, run me off
Nothing like destruction
To tell you what's up

Has your love gone and played me the fool?
Don't say what isn't true
I am me, and you are you
Am I the fool? Am I the fool?

Time has stopped
Since last we talked
Now you're half a world away
Your day is night, my night is day
I can't tell which is real
And I suspect what I'm feeling
A wound hurts as it's healing
And my poison I picked when I saw you
But I am still me, and you are you

A petal falls
An open flower
A plain-clothed clue
Has your love gone and played me?

Don't play me again, the fool
Don't save me from the worst of you
Don't say, don't say what isn't true

"A prepossessing voice" (A&R Factory).

No one sounds quite like Kela Parker. The Los Angeles- based, Portland, Oregon-bred singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist pushes the edges of pop forms with her singular mystic prairie rock, “like folk music, but from a country you’ve never heard of before.” (Destination: Universe!). ... more
