What is it that turns you on to the illusion of power,
|
This thing that grabs you by the heart and makes you want to tear things down.
|
There is no reason why I should need all this power, but if you cross me now,
|
I'm gonna tear your whole world down.
|
|
The illusion of power, things I feel, seem so real,
|
The illusion of power.
|
|
I can't get the emotional thing straight in my head,
|
Everything I love dies too soon, or is already dead.
|
Don't stand too close I spit and breathe fire,
|
Anything I've got now you cannot desire.
|
|
You want to be my friend, I promise you nothing.
|
Nothing I can give you, nothing I can do for you,
|
I'm being chased by the sins of my past and it's killing me now,
|
Killing me now.
|
|
The illusion of power, things I feel, seem so real,
|
The illusion of power.
|
The illusion of power, it's already set signed and sealed,
|
The illusion of power.
|
|
Fool, you're caught in a complex catacomb of your own inadequcies and pitiful weaknesses,
|
Your soul secretes insecurity.
|
So you live on the reflection side of the mirror; you're terrified of true power.
|
You Fear
|
|
I can tell you stories of my
|
shaded past and I can drag you down into the depths of my soul.
|
|
The illusion of power, things I feel, seem so real,
|
The illusion of power.
|
The illusion of power, it's already set signed and sealed,
|
The illusion of power.
|
|
Why don't you come closer, Promise a story I will tell, yeah,
|
I'll save you from your dreams, yeah
|
I'll save you from your dreams.
