Magic Pie Circus of Life, Part VI: Trick of the Mind song lyrics
- Act I - Song of Decision
Frustrated, week minded, self centered and hopelessly blinded
You need to stop reaching, 'cause this is all you get
Encouraged, strong minded, respected and awfully gifted
You took a chance and placed the right bet
There is nothing stopping you, you just need your will
Envision what you want, and you'll be the king of the hill
Your mind is a tool, a cornerstone business
An egocentric evil, or the samaritans kindness
What your mind can believe, what your mind can perceive
Your body can achieve
What your mind can believe, what your mind can perceive
Your dreams can concieve
Do you know who's to blame; do you know where it all lies
It's all about perspective; you're no different in the victim's eyes
So drown yourself in guilt, and save yourself
Reconnect your mind, what are your choices today?
The bigger events can have smaller causes
The minor wins can have major losses,
Stand behind your beliefs
Keep an open heart and a clear mind and the rest will take you anywhere
One long straight, two narrow paths to elsewhere
Which one do you choose, do you want to know what's out there
Remember how the saying goes
Keep an open heart and a clear mind and the rest will take you anywhere
- Act II - Song of Anger
I blame it all on you; you're the reason for my failure
And everything started right after your departure
You beated me, he beat you, I'll beat them altogether
My life is wrecked, my future's lost forever
- Act III - Song of Sharing
He's sitting there thinking of the role he's been given
His mind has gone blank, but he doesn't care
He's been sitting there for hours, and as time passes by
He's been deep in his world behind a calm empty stare
For some weeks she's been looking at the path she has chosen
Was it right to abandom him 'cause he cared for his world
It was a tough decision, but she craved for the freedom
Looking back now though, she's no longer sure
What your mind can believe, what your mind can perceive
Your body can achieve
What your mind can believe, what your mind can perceive
Your dreams can conceive
There's an elderly woman, saying "I can sense secrets"
Show her your picture, and she'll show you yourself
The secrets she speaks of, is it doors to be opened?
Should you keep them inside, is it right of you to sell?
I'm just a man without greats plans or visions
I love women and wine, I like enjoying my life
I've a story or two that could lead me to ruin
I've kept them inside, safe from myself
- Act IV - Face to Face
The bigger events can have smaller causes
The minor wins can have major losses,
Stand behind your beliefs
Keep an open heart and a clear mind,
and the rest will take you anywhere
One long straight, two narrow paths to elsewhere
Which one do you choose, do you want to know what's out there
Remember how the saying goes
Keep an open heart and a clear mind and the rest will take you anywhere
Face to face with an important decision
My legs are hanging on the edge of the cliff
I'm not about to deny what I envision
If I think for too long I'll lose my grip and fall
The bigger events can have smaller causes
The minor wins can have major losses,
Stand behind your beliefs
Keep an open heart and a clear mind,
and the rest will take you anywhere
