Fool to blame

As I keep growing old
I can see the value of the words
That they once sang to me
But only now
It doesn't seem that the lyrics mean that much to them anymore
Is there anyway I could ever have known

[chorus]
I know it's foolish to worship what my heroes say
Then I'm a fool
I only have myself to blame
I feel so stupid about all the time I spent
Trying to figure out exactley what they meant

I understand they can't spend their whole lives
Rehashing old feelings from ten years ago
Not valid anymore
But to me those lyrics add meaning to my little life
I think that I'm an overemotional bore
