Heart
Hey there, Genius
Don’t you already know
You’re not supposed to
Go and catch feelings
Suggestion, cut your heart out
Lock it up and throw away the key
Do so, before anyone else
Can rip it out for keeps
You won’t need it anyway
Because the ones you play with
Aren’t looking for commitment
Or to handle a heart with care
Advice, stop thinking twice
Don’t let it be seen you are
So vulnerable and in need
Before they scare and flee
Stop your heartbeat, no butterflies
Inside there, going crazy for somebody
Listen to reason, the heart is misleading
So smart, yet so dumb
Cautious until you let
Yourself get caught up
And stuck on just one
Don’t act stupid, when love
Is just an elusive emotion
With no proof, protect you
Before you are left ruined
So, why did you go and catch feelings?
You’ve learned you’re fragile like glass
Told you no, but the heart doesn’t listen
