Love’s Mirage

[Verse]
Heart a worn map, creased, torn in the folds
Chased the X marks, but it’s fools’ gold
Promises whispered, sweeter than sin
Every door I knock on, emptiness within
Tired of these reruns, the same old pain
Love’s a mirage in a desert of rain
I give my all, they give me their mask
Truth a puzzle, but I’m missing the last
[Prechorus]
They smile, they swear, it’s all divine
I fall, they fade, every single time
[Chorus]
It’s all pain, no love, just a shadow game
Hearts collide, then they leave me the same
Every touch, a spark that never stays
It’s all lies, no trust, in these twisted plays
[Verse 2]
Lips curve sweet, but their words deceive
Every “forever” they sell, I grieve
Dreams like sandcastles, swept by the tide
Hope a fragile bird, clipped wings, can’t glide
Looking in their eyes, I see no light
Empty reflections, hollow as night
Caught in the spin, the spiral, the haze
Lost in their labyrinth, no escape from the maze
