The Fountainhead - The Bluetones

God knows I’ve tried to bridge the gap,

I’ve tried to be me and time after time I’ve lied,

Just to say the things you wanted to hear,

Look, look what I’ve done, look what I do,

I’m starting to pull myself through.

Hell could feasibly freeze,

But in your eyes I’ll always be,

The fountainhead,

The boy whose thoughts keep running away,

And you know I’m right.

Wasn’t it you who said,

That when looking to open the eyes in my head,

And now I can see from your mistakes,

You’re as blind as me,

God knows I’ve tried, god knows I try,

To be something more than I am.

Hell could feasibly freeze,

But in your eyes I’ll always be,

The fountainhead,

The boy whose thoughts keep running away,

And you know I’m right.

What can I say about being profound?

It’s a game that we play it goes round and around,

I shall stick to the rules but I won’t suffer fools,

And I won’t lose the plot and I won’t lose my cool,

Can’t you see what I’ve done, can’t you see what I do,

It’s not really unique and it’s hopelessly crude,

But these are my decisions, these are my mistakes,

And I’ll fall down again if that’s what it takes.
