Illusions

(Verse 1)

In shadows deep, where silence screams,

I walk the edge of broken dreams,

A lifeless shell, this hollowed heart,

A fading ember, a world torn apart.

(Pre-Chorus)

Through shattered mirrors, my soul takes flight,

But every spark is quenched by night.

An echoing void where hope was sung,

I've been dead for long, now the time has come.

(Chorus)

It's all a nothing, this fading light,

For far too long, I’ve lost the fight.

The illusion falters, my torment’s real,

Drowning in sorrow, I can no longer feel.

(Bridge)

(Suffering)

Chains of despair, they bind me tight,

In a cage of darkness, I search for light.

Despite the struggle, I remain helpless,

A lifeline frayed, my heart relentless.

(Chorus)

It's all a nothing, this fading light,

For far too long, I’ve lost the fight.

The illusion falters, my torment’s real,

Drowning in sorrow, I can no longer feel.

(Breakdown)

My heart can no longer withstand the freeze,

Bound by ice that brings me to my knees.

These words are daggers, this truth cuts deep,

Take my cries, for they will never sleep.

(Chorus)

Take my words, hear my desperate plea,

I will never leave you, stay here with me.

In the depths of despair, the darkness grows,

A scream in the silence, where no one knows.

(Outro)

In the aftermath, I rise from the ash,

With flames of defiance, I'll break through the crash.

Though the illusion falters, I stand in the storm,

Through suffering’s grip, I’ll finally be reborn.
