Like most of Alter Bridge’s tracks, Island of fools speaks about faith and how men should face that. In the song, they make clear that we are not alone, and are not meant to be. Musically, the focus is in the heavy metal riffs of Tremonti (wich has being mastered in his solo projects) and the

Island of Fools Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Shatter the illusions of the world
That you believed in long ago
You can't let go
Nothing's sacred, can't survive
You've reached the end on borrowed time
But you must try
[Chorus]
Just save yourself
There is nothing to hide from the truth
There's no one else here beside you
Please save yourself
Cause you don't have a moment to lose
And time will tell
If you're meant to survive on your own
[Verse 2]
Crying for redemption
There's a mystery below, he broke your heart
And left you scarred
The time is now, there's no recourse
It's only what you see and what you want
And though it's hard
[Chorus]
Just save yourself
There is nothing to hide from the truth
There's no one else here beside you
Please save yourself
Cause you don't have a moment to lose
And time will tell
If you're meant to survive on your own
On your own
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 3]
When will you see
The promise of what life should be
Your destiny
You must believe
That courage is all that you need
That's all you need
(All you need)
[Chorus]
(Save yourself)
There is nothing to hide from the truth
(No one else)
Left beside you
(Save yourself)
Though you're lost on this island of fools
(Time will tell)
If you're meant to survive on your own

In enterview to musicradar.com:
Myles: “That’s my very Mastodon-influenced riff. Hopefully we’ll play that one live. I play the solo before the middle eight and again, those dissonant bends… I call them irritating bug bends – if there’s a fly somewhere buzzing around you, that’s what we’re trying t...
