(Intro)

I thought it was true love

But its easy to confuse love with lust

I was playing it smart and kept my heart on locked to keep it protected

(Verse)

It felt like love to me

After taking the blindfold off I can finally see

It wasn't what my heart made it out to be

It told me to let you unlock it so I gave you the key

I should had weighed out the fee

Before I let my heart fall so deep

I was too eager to receive true love that my heart seek

I let my heart fall for anything it was so weak

(Chorus)

I'm never listening to my heart again

It led me astray

Because it doesn't know the difference between lust and love

And now I’m left with a broken heart

(Verse)

We started face-timing every night

Our future looked so bright

I just knew you were Mr.Right

After a few talks, I gave you the key and you unlocked my heart

It was finally free and more vulnerable to be torn apart

I should had never gave you the key form Start

You left me in the dark

Made me feel like my whole world was falling apart

(Chorus)

I'm never listening to my heart again

Because It led me astray

And it doesn't know the difference between lust and love

And now I'm left with a broken heart

(Verse)

You said you loved me, and my heart held on to that lie

My mind already knew you weren't telling the truth but I still decided to let my heart choose

I admit it did make me feel good

My heart let you pulled the wool over my eyes

And reality was no longer in my sight, so I couldn't save it from getting abused

I should have known you would leave my heart here to cry

It takes so long for it to heal after what it wants says goodbye

It gave me so much pain on the inside

(Chorus)

I'm never listening to my stupid heart again

It led me astray

Because it doesn't know the difference between love and lust

And now I'm left with a broken heart

(Verse)

You asked me that question and showed me your true intention

I refused, that's when you started acting different

The morning texts started to go missing

You told me you were just sleeping

My brain told me you just wanted the business

But my heart said you still loved me

Again I started to trust it, even when things wasn't like what it use to be

Everything my heart told me I believed

(Pre-Chorus)

Oh my heart was so wrong

I should had known

Next time just leave my heart alone

(Chorus)

Oh I'm never listening to my heart again

It led me astray

Because it doesn't know the difference between lust and love

And now I'm left with a broken heart

( Bridge )

You told me we would just be better off as friends

I agreed with this plan

Then I found out while we were together you was messing around with my best friend

Now my heart wants revenge

Ooo boy you got to pay for everything that you did

Karma will get you in the end

And I learn to never listen to my heart again

Because my heart was wrong

I should had known

Next time just leave my heart alone

(Outtro)

I thought it was true love

But its very easy to get caught up

My heart confused love with lust

I guess locking my heart back up is a must
