FOLLOW MY HEART?

FOLLOW MY HEART?

Follow my heart even though she hurt you
Forget all the stuff she put you through
My sensible mind says no
But my heart says yes

Follow my heart even though she made you stressed
Left you down, alone and depressed
My sensible mind says no
But my heart says yes

Follow my heart and respond to her call
Even though you know it will lead to a fall
My sensible mind says no
But my heart says yes

Follow my heart but ignore reason's voice
I'm just a fool who's made the wrong choice
My sensible mind says don't do it again
But my foolish heart is leading me into the lion's den

Now I'm in a place deadlier than a thousand swords
All because I listened to her soothing words
My sensible mind says remember what happened before
But my foolish heart says I want to be in pain some more

I know the outcome, but I just can't stop
She's hurt me before, I already know the plot
My sensible mind screaming and telling me no
But my foolish heart doesn't want to do so

Follow my heart, what am I thinking?
It seems so sweet but it's poison I'm drinking
Killing me slowly and eating me alive
Following my heart will leave me empty inside.
