The Heart Magician

It takes time to realize the mistakes you've made Or maybe just time to accept they were mistakes Either way, you've gotta find a new path Learn from the past, and don't let yourself break I'm no self proclaimed Prophet And I'm not always right in the things I do But when I speak these words of truth and wisdom Just remember that they're meant for you Sometimes enough just simply never is You think you know someone, until you really do But then it's too late to escape all the chaos How can it be hard to forget someone you never knew? Can you sit there knowing you're no better than an option? Seen as someone to just pass the time Have your feelings been crushed and ground into the dirt? You're as lost as a group of drunken mimes Are you the same person that you used to be? Or have you lost yourself in all the confusion Your heart is still there under your chest But the heartbeat is just an illusion On the outside your pain appears to be minimal Maybe your heart is too broken for healing You've secluded yourself into the shadows The aura around you is nothing short of chilling Shied away from all that surrounds you But putting the weight upon the shoulders of yours Weakened by lies, but too strong to die It's too hard to cry once you've shut all the doors
