Wisdom in Pop Music

Often we consider pop music to be shallow, and, I have to admit, most of the time this is a true assessment. But once in a while, we find a little gem.

You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You’re frozen
When your heart’s not open.

You’re so consumed with how much you get
You waste your time with hate and regret
You’re broken
When your heart’s not open.



Now there’s no point in placing the blame
And you should know I suffer the same
If I lose you
My heart will be broken.

Love is a bird, she needs to fly
Let all the hurt inside of you die
You’re frozen
When your heart’s not open.

….

You only see what your eyes want to see
How can life be what you want it to be
You’re frozen
When your heart’s not open.
