A memory of an unfortunate encounter; people turn out to be not what you expected, sometimes because you imagined what wasn't there.
lyrics
Broken the seventh seal
Think you might be the real thing
Blown way out of proportion, oh
Emotion
Ride on black and brown horses, oh
Got to protect my heart
Get back into your boxes
Like you stepped out of a Jane Austen Novel
Don't do anything stupid
Precaution
Listen to mother's voice here, child
You've got to protect your heart
You must protect your heart
What a fool I was
What a fool I was
Mistook the look you gave me
For who I imagined you to be
Got To protect your heart
Play it, play it smart
To your chest, hold your cards
You've only ever got one heart

I think it's difficult to write songs about something other than romantic love, and still be able to communicate the intensity with which those feelings can hit a person. Some of the entries on this album are fantastic examples of this niche. dani_bloop
