Heart Over Mind

Take a look at this man and see Tapping keys and strings meaninglessly And never satisfied with himself And too prideful to ask for help When smoke from the flaming heart Suffocates the mind In the mirror stares a shadow And only darkness lay behind He knows right from wrong But he's suffered for so long Now he's deafened to all rational thought And scarred by all the fights he fought When smoke from the flaming heart Suffocates the mind In the mirror stares a shadow And only darkness lay behind He'll shake his head in shame Never realizing That his heart is so cold That tears freeze upon his cheeks Everything he knows Everything he believes in Every tear he cries And everyday he dies When smoke from the flaming heart Suffocates the mind In the mirror stares a shadow And only darkness lay behind When songs from an eclipsed heart Show him what he's faced He will plant a prideful garden Where darkness will be embraced
