About the song
“Fool For You” by Kastra is about being trapped in a toxic love, knowing it’s not right but not being able to let go. The lyrics show the struggle of hearing lies, feeling ignored, and still holding on even when it hurts.
The song paints the picture of someone torn between their heart and mind—confused by mixed signals, hurt by scars, yet still hoping for something real. It captures the pain of staying when you know you should walk away.
At its core, it’s about the weakness love can bring. Even while being played with and left broken, the singer admits they’re still a “fool” for the other person, showing the deep pull and power of love, even when it’s destructive.
Lyrics
I’ve been running over leaving in my head
Tripping over all the stupid things you’ve said
I keep stalling and now I’m falling
It’s like I’m constantly questioning you
So if you want me, why are you tearing me apart?
It’s killing me slowly, watching you hide behind your scars
Not here when I need you, I’ve been trying to pull through
You play with my mind, play with my mind, play with my mind
But I’m just a fool for you
I play it cool for you
Every night feeding me lies
I turn a blind eye to
I’m just a fool for you
I’m just a fool for you
I’m just a fool for you
(I’m just a fool for you)
I’m just a fool for you
I know you always tell me what I want to hear
It’s like it’s deafening, the silence when you’re near
All these blurred lines, I still hold tight
Hoping you give me something that is real
So if you want me, why are you tearing me apart?
It’s killing me slowly, watching you hide behind your scars
Not here when I need you, I’ve been trying to pull through
You play with my mind, play with my mind, play with my mind
But I’m just a fool for you
I play it cool for you
Every night feeding me lies
I turn a blind eye to
I’m just a fool for you
I’m just a fool for you
I’m just a fool for you
(I’m just a fool for you)
So if you want me, why are you tearing me apart?
It’s killing me slowly, watching you hide behind your scars
Not here when I need you, I’ve been trying to pull through
You play with my mind, play with my mind, play with my mind
But I’m just a fool for you
I play it cool for you
Every night feeding me lies
I turn a blind eye to
I’m just a fool for you
I’m just a fool for you
I’m just a fool for you
I’m just a fool for you
(I’m just a fool for you)
