Have you seen,
Where my love went, where my love went?
It fed upon your selfishness,
Now there's nothing you have left.
That is where your love went.

Have you found,
My pot of gold, I left it here?
It was but fool's gold, my dear,
It was but fool's gold.

Can you hear,
Their laughter now, oh the hearty cackle now?
Such pleasure on your neighbor's brow,
I hear them cackle now.

Do you see,
Their bloody mouths, with their dirty bloody teeth?
Are they tearing you to shreds,
With their sharpened teeth?

Are you sorry,
Now, you wretch, are you sorry now?
No, I've been down a time or two,
And I'm not sorry now.

Are you scared,
To live my friend, are you scared to live?
No, living's what we're here to do,
And that's the time it is.

Where will you run to,
My friend, where will you run to?
A better place where true love waits,
That's where I'll run to.

And what of those,
You'll leave behind, when you go away?
I don't think they'll really mind,
When I am far away.

I'll be happy,
Once again, I'll be a happy girl.
This is all but one small step,
In a great big world.
