Fools Lyrics – Troye Sivan
Fools Lyrics
[Verse 1: Troye Sivan]
I am tired of this place, I hope people change
I need time to replace what I gave away
And my hopes, they are high, I must keep them small
Though I try to resist I still want it all
[Pre-Chorus: Troye Sivan]
I see swimming pools and living rooms and aeroplanes
I see a little house on the hill and children’s names
I see quiet nights poured over ice and Tanqueray
But everything is shattering and it’s my mistake
[Chorus: Troye Sivan]
Only fools fall for you, only fools
Only fools do what I do, only fools fall
Only fools fall for you, only fools
Only fools do what I do, only fools fall
[Verse 2: Troye Sivan]
Oh, our lives don’t collide, I’m aware of this
We've got differences and impulses and your obsession with
The little things you like stick, and I like aerosol
I don’t give a f**k, I'm not giving up, I still want it all
[Chorus: Troye Sivan]
Only fools fall for you, only fools
Only fools do what I do, only fools fall
Only fools fall for you, only fools
Only fools do what I do, only fools fall
[Pre-Chorus: Troye Sivan]
I see swimming pools and living rooms and aeroplanes
I see a little house on the hill and children’s names
I see quiet nights poured over ice and Tanqueray
But everything is shattering and it’s my mistake
[Chorus: Troye Sivan]
Only fools fall for you, only fools fall
Only fools do what I do, only fools fall
Only fools fall for you, only fools fall
Only fools do what I do, only fools fall
[Bridge: Troye Sivan]
Only fools fall for you (Only fools)
Only fools do what I do (Only fools)
Only fools fall for you (Only fools)
Only fools do what I do, only fools fall
[Outro: Troye Sivan]
(Only fools)
(Only fools)
(Only fools)
(Only fools)
Fools Lyrics Meaning
The lyrics of "Fools" by Troye Sivan expresses the complex emotions of longing, desire, and self-awareness within a tumultuous relationship. The protagonist acknowledges their own foolishness for falling for someone despite the evident differences and challenges in the relationship. They grapple with conflicting feelings of wanting to move on and yet still yearning for the person they love. The song captures the bittersweet nature of love and the struggles associated with letting go.
[Verse 1]
The first verse sets the tone for the song, with the narrator expressing fatigue with their current situation and a desire for change. They acknowledge the need to replace what they've given away in the relationship. Despite trying to keep their hopes in check, they find themselves still wanting everything, indicating a struggle between realism and idealism.
[Pre-Chorus]
In the pre-chorus, the narrator paints a vivid picture of their aspirations and desires, symbolized by swimming pools, living rooms, and aeroplanes. These images represent a conventional notion of success and stability. However, amidst these dreams, there's a realization that everything is falling apart, hinting at a sense of responsibility or guilt for the relationship's deterioration.
[Chorus]
The chorus is the anthem of the song, emphasizing the folly of falling in love despite the odds. The repetition of "only fools fall" underscores the theme of foolishness in love. Despite recognizing the irrationality of their actions, the narrator admits to being one of those fools who can't help but fall for someone.
[Verse 2]
In the second verse, the narrator acknowledges the differences and conflicts within the relationship. They are aware of the disparities in their personalities and interests, yet there's still a strong attraction and desire to hold on to the relationship. The mention of "aerosol" versus "little things" highlights the contrast between their preferences and priorities.
[Pre-Chorus]
The pre-chorus is repeated, reinforcing the imagery of dreams juxtaposed with the harsh reality of a crumbling relationship. The swimming pools and living rooms symbolize domestic bliss, while the mention of Tanqueray gin evokes images of luxury and indulgence. However, these fantasies are shattered by the narrator's acknowledgment of their own mistakes.
[Chorus]
The chorus repeats once more, emphasizing the central theme of foolishness in love and the inability to resist its pull. Despite the pain and disillusionment, the narrator remains ensnared by their emotions, unable to break free from the cycle of longing and disappointment.

[Outro]

Despite the inevitable heartache, the narrator resigns themselves to the reality that they are just another fool succumbing to the complexities of love.
