Illusions
Shadows creep closer
Draw a breath in
For me to sink in my mind
For the nightmare to begin
Chase me into comfort
Trick me into your arms
You know that's how I learn
But hey
That's how I live
Just don't shake me awake
Keep these eyes closed shut
I can't face the life I lead anymore
Let's just keep up the tricks
Just keep up the illusion
To make it to another day
