Colorful Illusion

I reached for the sky, so endless, so wide,

But the clouds whispered, "Stay on this side."

I walked on a road where the stars used to shine,

Yet my feet found shadows, no stardust, no sign.

Oh, the echoes call my name,

But they never sound the same.

Is it real, or just a dream?

Lost between what’s seen and unseen.

What is truth? What is light?

What is color in the fading night?

I keep chasing, I keep falling,

Through illusions, through the calling.

Oh, I just need a touch of something real...

The sun kissed my face, but the warmth felt cold,

A tale retold, a lie so bold.

I ran to the place where the river once sang,

Now it hums a silence, deep and blank.

Oh, the echoes call my name,

But they never sound the same.

Is it love, or just a haze?

Lost inside this endless maze.

What is truth? What is light?

What is color in the fading night?

I keep chasing, I keep falling,

Through illusions, through the calling.

Oh, I just need a touch of something real...

If I close my eyes, will I see clear?

If I hold my breath, will the whispers disappear?

Tell me now, is the sky really blue?

Or just another shade of a dream untrue?

What is truth? What is light?

What is color in the fading night?

I keep searching, I keep longing...

For something real, for something true,

Maybe that something... is you.
