I need you like the summer needs the rain
I need you to be a shelter from my
Precarious life, impugnable thoughts
run through my mind
I’m still consternated by these lies

I need you more than my precious air
I breathe
I need you to be a refuge from my
Obstreperous fears, vociferous noise
That no one hears
It’s been haunting me for years

Chorus
I’d rather be a fool, than be wise and
Against you
So let me be a fool

Make me a fool in the eyes of all those who
claim to be wise
Let them see I am nothing without you
Let me be weak at your feet
Let me be broken before you
