perfect by nature
icons of self-indulgence
just what we all need
more lies about a world that
never was and never will be
have you no shame? Don’t you see me?
you know you’ve got everybody fooled
look here she comes now
bow down and stare in wonder
oh how we love you
no flaws when you’re pretending
but now i know she
never was and never will be
you don’t know how you’ve betrayed me
and somehow you’ve got everybody fooled
without the mask where will you hide?
can’t find yourself lost in your lie
i know the truth now
i know who you are
and i don’t love you anymore
it never was and never will be
you don’t know how you’ve betrayed me
and somehow you’ve got everybody fooled
it never was and never will be
you’re not real and you can’t save me
somehow now you’re everybody’s fool

"Everybody’s Fool" is a song by American rock band Evanescence. Wind-up Records released the song on June 7, 2004, as the fourth single from their debut studio album, Fallen. It was written by Amy Lee and Ben Moody and it was produced by Dave Fortman. According to Lee the song talks about celebrities like Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, who strip and sell their bodies. Inspired by her sister’s love for music artists who had false images, Lee wrote the song five years before the release of the album.
Critical reception towards "Everybody’s Fool" were mixed to positive with critics praising the nu-metal sound of the song.
