[Verse 1]
I keep my mouth sewn shut
What a wise man I’ve become
Teeth marks in my tongue
'Cause there ain’t nobody I trust (Nope)

[Pre-Chorus]
And I know (They’re climbin' up, they’re climbin')
The higher they get the further they’ll fall
So I pull (I’m pullin', up I’m pullin')
As hard as I can just to sever the rope
(I won't give them the chance to bring me down)

[Chorus]
Fool me once, fool me twice, no reply
Parasites got an appetite for me
See the hype, so they climb my goldеn vine
Parasites got an appetitе for me
I won’t give them the satisfaction
Fool me once, fool me twice, you’ll pay the price
Paradise ain’t the place you wanna find me

[Verse 2]
I gotta pick and choose who to lose
I’m walking through a spiderweb like it’s a noose
And it ain’t ever coming loose, I’m turning blue
Oh, here we go, there ain’t nobody I trust
[Pre-Chorus]
And I know (They’re climbin' up, they’re climbin')
The higher they get the further they’ll fall
So I pull (I’m pullin', up I’m pullin')
As hard as I can just to sever the rope (Yeah)

[Chorus]
Fool me once, fool me twice, no reply
Parasites got an appetite for me
See the hype, so they climb my golden vine
Parasites got an appetite for me
I won’t give them the satisfaction
Fool me once, fool me twice, you’ll pay the price
Paradise ain’t the place you wanna find me

[Bridge: Andy Hershey & Jon lundin]
You feel attached
Your bond aligned (Yeah)
You’re draining me
Of what you can find (Slowly)
I break away
I run and hide
I got a parasite in my life
So I’m cutting ties

Stay in my own forever (In my own forever)
What a lonely grave where you’ll never (Where you'll never)
[Chorus Jon Lundin, Andy Hershey, Both]
Fool me once (Ay), fool me twice (Twice), no reply
Parasites (Sites) got an appetite for me
See the hype (Hype), so they climb my golden vine
Parasites (Sites) got an appetite for me
I won’t give them the satisfaction
Fool me once, fool me twice, you’ll pay the price
Paradise ain’t the place you wanna find me

[Outro: Andy Hershey]
Fool me once, fool me twice, you’ll pay the price
You'll pay the price
