Doppelganger

My heart, it can change at the drop of a dime My head, it just tries to keep it in line My heart is a swing, my head is a strong wind Try as I might, to see things through I slip, falter, I always do When my head is at work, my heart is the weekend When things fall apart, my heart knows the pain To lift me back up, it's up to my brain My heart's under attack and my head's an escape pod Because my heart, it knows what it is to yearn But you need some sense to make sense of the burn When my heart is a storm, my head is a lightning rod Far too often, they disagree And I'm left with the feeling there's two of me Changing my clothes or changing my mind Feels like the same thing some of the time Try this one on, see how it fits you Consider the options, pick what feels right Change several times 'fore you leave for the night My heart is a swing, my head is a swing too My head is not so easily swayed But my heart won't quit, it keeps pulling away My heart is the moon, my head is the ocean They share the same victory, the same defeat And it takes both to lie and to cheat My heart's playing games, but my head is coaching Only too often, they disagree I'm left with the sensation there's two of me Though they may clash, they meet the same fate To get there, they have to cooperate My head is the map, my heart is the compass My heart's got ideas, it does what it can But my head's got other plans My heart's laying eggs, my head's making omelettes My heart, it keeps searching for what it ain't found My head sometimes tries just to shut it all down My heart is a migrant, my head is a brick wall But walls, they can fall and ladders are cheap Holes can be dug in the ground underneath Heads and hearts find a way, no matter how tall Oh how often we disagree And I'm not talking respectfully But we've all got heads and hearts Yeah, we're all made of the same parts Same desire, same fear as well Constant conflict in our heads and our hearts Our own picture hangs where we're throwing darts We're all just at war with ourselves So think with your heart, love with your head It's not one or the other, it's both 'til you're dead
