Once I dreamt I would

Rule a world of pleasures

Once I dreamt I would

leave my footprints

Senses corrupted

Ignorance belied

Foolish dreams were kicked out

I only had her to hold

Senses corrupted Adversity subdued

Ignorance belied Apathy consumed me

Foolish dreams were kicked out of me

I only had her to hold on to



    Can she be my savior?

    She can heal all my bleeding

    She can bring me the future

    A promise of paradise

    The promise of paradise

we find solace in our webs of illusion

weaving around us a shield to hide from our fears

we find courage behind our masks of deception

lying to ourselves to hide from the truth

    Am I in denial?

    It was she who was bleeding

    Delusion consumed me

    And tore down my paradise

She made a promise of paradise that I could never ever find

Please lie to me

Please convince me

That there is a difference

That I hoped I'd never find
