[Verse]
Shadows creep into my soul as the day turns in to night
They eat away my humanity turning wrong into right
Possessed by mournful longings in my minds silent screams
Passion’s fire slowly dies along with childhood dreams
[Verse]
Tortured by lost lovers, deciding my twisted fate
Temptations dance by firelight arriving much too late
Solemn thoughts take over, I fight to clear my head
Memories of elation dwindle until they’re finally dead
[Chorus]
Love is an illusion
Disappearing in the mist
Love is a deceiver
Betraying with a kiss
Love is a fantasy
Exposed as you grow old
Love is not forever
No matter what you’re told
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
The battleground of fear and pain
The smoke will clear what will remain
Broken hearts and shattered dreams
Nothing is as it once seemed
No nothing is as it once seemed
[Chorus]
Love is an illusion
Disappearing in the mist
Love is a deceiver
Betraying with a kiss
Love is a fantasy
Exposed as you grow old
Love is not forever
No matter what you’re told
[Final Chorus]
Love is an illusion
Disappearing in the mist
Love is a deceiver
Betraying with a kiss
Love is a fantasy
Exposed as you grow old
Love is not forever
No matter what you’re told
Love is
Love is
