Illusions Within

(Verse 1)

Woke up this mornin', sun's blarin' bright,

Gotta face the day, but it don’t feel right.

Lookin' in the mirror, who the hell’s that guy?

Just a damn facade, man, livin' a lie.

(Chorus)

Everything’s a fuckin' illusion,

Caught up in this bullshit confusion.

Smiles on the surface, but deep down I cry,

Livin' this life, yeah, it’s all a big lie.

(Verse 2)

Chasin' dreams that don’t exist,

Fakin' my way through this twisted plot twist.

Friends all around, but they’re just playin’ a part,

No one knows the mess that’s inside my heart.

(Chorus)

Everything’s a fuckin' illusion,

Caught up in this bullshit confusion.

Smiles on the surface, but deep down I cry,

Livin' this life, yeah, it’s all a big lie.

(Bridge)

I’m tired of the masquerade,

These fake-ass smiles, they just invade.

I just wanna scream, wanna break free,

Tired of livin' this make-believe reality.

(Verse 3)

Nights are the worst, drownin' in my thoughts,

Feelin' like a pawn in this game I never sought.

Sippin' on whiskey, tryin’ to drown the pain,

Hidin' from the truth, but it’s all in vain.

(Chorus)

Everything’s a fuckin' illusion,

Caught up in this bullshit confusion.

Smiles on the surface, but deep down I cry,

Livin' this life, yeah, it’s all a big lie.

(Outro)

So I’ll raise my glass to the nights I’ve bled,

Fuck this world, I’m done playin’ dead.

Gonna break these chains, gonna defy the sky,

‘Cause I’m sick of this masquerade,

I’m done with the lie.
