Heart of Careless Action

How does one pull so much wool,
In concealing her essence?
How can all be like a fool,
Trusting this false appearance?

Oh heart of careless action,
Why is such numbness displayed?
Do you not bleed emotion,
Or know of the pains you've made?

Oh heart of careless action,
What of those lessons of old?
Is your gained wisdom now shunned
Now that you own a new mold?

On this path of illusion,
You fool yourself with these lies.
Oh heart of careless action,
Why plant these seeds of demise?
