lyrics

They got it wrong it seems
Another false prophet with wily dreams
I took a chance and fell
Into the great fires of burning hell

Grieving, I am seething
I was misled by the one who knows all
Regrets have no secrets
I was fed to the hungry lions of temptation

And it was a shame to discover
That love was fake
And I was a fool to have fallen
For the mystic’s mistake

The mystic’s mistake

Misfortune followed me
From out of the lifeboat on stormy seas
I took advice to heart
A mock invitation that fell apart

Grieving, I am seething
I was misled by the one who knows all
Regrets have no secrets
I was fed to the hungry lions of temptation, temptation

It was so hard to recover
And not forsake
Though I was a fool to have fallen
It was a shame to discover
That love was fake
And I was a fool to have fallen
For the mystic’s mistake

The mystic’s mistake
