Восхищение Кэрри Ли (сестрой Эми) такими певицами как Бритни Спирз и Кристина Агилера послужили вдохновением на создание данной композиции. Эми Ли как-то сказала, что Кэрри начала подражать в манере одеваться этим двум суперзвездам, что сильно злило Эми: "Моя младшая сестра помешана на всем этом, я не хочу никого обидеть, но распутные конфетки среди идолов женского пола, как и любая подделка и дешевка, меня просто «достали». Она начала одеваться, как они, хотя ей всего 8 лет. Так что я провела с ней разъяснительную беседу и написала песню... Песня не о Бритни Спирз: она о многих людях из этой индустрии. Все эти голливудские штучки в целом такие наигранные. 'Посмотри, как я прекрасна!' - никто так не выглядит. Это все подделка, и это реально вредит многим девушкам и женщинам. Где все нормальные люди?"

Это третья по счету песня на альбоме "Fallen" и четвертый сингл с этого альбома. Кроме того, на "Everybody's Fool" снят клип.

Тексты песен:

Everybody's Fool - Fallen version
Эта версия песни начинается с акустической гитары.

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're not real and you can't save me
Somehow now you're everybody's fool

Everybody's Fool - Demo 2002 version #1

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
Too bad we didn't know she
Never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled

[David vocal sample]
The dynamic of symmetrical social riots
Can be summed together in broad statements
That what has become blueprint for all
And all have been reduced to the space of one

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 - Demo 2002 version #2

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
Too bad we didn't know she
Never was and never will be
You don't know how you've betrayed me
And somehow you've got everybody fooled

[David vocal sample]
The dynamic of symmetrical social riots
Can be summed together in broad statements
That what has become blueprint for all
And all have been reduced to the space of one

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
