Trick Of The Mind

- 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
