Illusions

I can't steer away from the tragedy before me

Its burning luminescence holds my eye

I can not understand it you are so disenchanted

In your shadow of a life

I hold this one truth to myself：

To never forget where I have come from

Your lies beguile us all

But there's still a chance to change

You must forsake the facade

And realize just who you are

For what you've done

You've faded to blackness

Your closing eyes sink into darkness

You've turned your back on what you believe

For the sake of walking through a dream

Your startling contradictions

All derive from your life's own fictions

Illusions give you all the pride

That you need to deal with what's inside

But you'll never wipe the tears from your eyes

Because you're living a selfish lie

I hold this one truth to myself：

To never forget where I have come from

Your lies beguile us all

But there's still a chance to change

You must forsake the facade

And realize just who you are

For what you've done you've faded to blackness

Your closing eyes sink into darkness

We're so determined to blaze our own trail

That we forget who we are and we cover ourselves in lies

But I will not for I have sovereignty

In the eyes of those who may judge me

I will overcome

For what you've done you've faded to blackness

Your closing eyes sink into darkness
