"Fool's Gold" Lyrics:

I drank the dregs of the champagne alone.
Warm, flat, coppery coins down my throat.
I'm saving up for a rainy day
and I plan to spend it in one place.

I threw the party so I could stay put.
You brought the bottle like a promise I forgot.
A new year begins. It ushers us in.
The knot in my gut is coming with.

He'll blame the alcohol
and you'll blame the full moon.
She'll blame the fall of man,
but I blame the part of you
that can't let up on the reigns.
You've got life in a chokehold.
You say that it's all the same,
all glittering fool's gold.

I can't tell how big my heart is.
Let's open the doors, see how many fit.
Like drunks in a bathtub, keep piling in.
Now I'm locking the door til the morning.

He'll blame the alcohol
and you'll blame the full moon.
She'll blame the fall of man
and I blame the evening news
for giving us doomsday
and dropping the ball,
building our fear
like bricks in a wall.
He'll blame his mom and dad
and you'll say you understand.
She'll blame the wrath of god
and I come up empty handed.
Every time he cries out,
you'll blame the altitude.
She'll blame society,
but I blame the part of you
that can't let up on the reigns.
You've got life in a chokehold.
You say that it's all the same,
all glittering fool's gold.

I don’t really know how to explain it but this song is really meaningful to me right now. Fools gold(and a lot of Lucy’s songs) remind me deeply of my dad and his toxic teaching methods, and what it’s like to deal with it by yourself. It’s heavy and it’s not ok to make your kid carry your burdens.

Only 38 comments? This is beyond comprehension.. Lucy, I don't know if you will ever read this, but I have been alive almost half a century and I believe this may well be the finest song I have EVER heard. I sort of love you. 😵

I like your covers, but there's nothing quite as evocative or insightful as your original work! Much love and support!

Raisa Bruner says: " She's said it's based on a true story, and you can taste the authenticity of her lyrics. ... New Year's Eve is supposed to be a celebration, but often it's much more bittersweet than that. Here's a song to remind us we're not alone in that confusion. "
