It's about the futility of life... but the singer is not neccessarily jaded; she's still hopeful. Unlike many songs this one isn't about resolving anything or coming to terms with anything, it's simply about that moment when we all take a look at our live

Lyrics
Magic
Sometimes I find it hard to breathe
I look around and ponder is this where I'm meant to be
And though I know it all comes back to me
I still wonder whether life revolves around destiny
Chorus1:
I can't believe in passion
I can't believe that all we know is live and love
we keep trying and failing
I won't rely on money
and I won't decide that time heals all
cuz if I do, the world will use me, abuse me
I fear that we're not here to know
where the journey ends... how much do we control
Is there a plan that I can't see?
I want to believe I wanna be set free
though...
Chorus2:
I can't believe in magic, and i can't believe in fairy tales
cuz if I do, I'm a believer not a leader
I can't deny injustice
So I won't rely on right from wrong
cuz when I do
the world takes me and breaks me
Bridge:
All I know is, the world keeps changing
and I might get left behind
All the games that I am tired of playing
always runnin through my mind
oooh-ohhh ohhh-ohhh-oh-oh
mmmm
I want to learn to close my eyes
to feel what's real instead of trying to analyze
though it may be we all get burned
I'm still afriad to be that brave I've learned
Chorus 1 Repeats:
Just can't believe in passion
just can't believe that all we know is live and love
when we keep trying and failing
I wont rely on money, I won't decide that time heals all
cuz if I do, the world will use me abuse me
