Illusions
As poison pulses through my veins, I wash away the pain
Of living a life without the sparks that
light the world when you whisper my name
You know I stand tall on icy lies all bound to break
So fault the cracks and my mistakes, melt away my words and rage
I'm strong
Oh, I'm strong
Don't let the night fade too quickly
As starlight flickers in your eyes
Catching fireflies on summer nights,
(I'm) spinning dreams that I can't hide
While I circle 'round your flame
Oh, you make me lust for the life we said we never would
And I'm lost in your fire
I'm breaking my word,
but I hurt when you brush the scars that I buried here
I never meant to make this worse
But love stacked the deck and my trick didn't work
I'll bear my truth no matter how
bad it hurts, you've always known that
Now you know what I'm worth
Nothing, Love
I'll move as the tide flows
Let power break me and drown the light of hope
I'll singe my lungs to bring me resolve
And I'll spread my wings—just to clip them off
I'm strong
Shifty illusions, Love
I'm strong
Oh, let the irons heat up
I'm strong
Couldn't move to the fire fast enough
I'm strong
A shifty illusion, Love
Crack my illusions, Love
I'm weak in the blaze of your touch
I won't chase you forever
But know that right now
You're the fire in my flame
And I won't put it out
When the lies melt down, my Love, the truth will seep out
But till then I'll keep to my shadows and doubt
Of living a life without the sparks that
light the world when you whisper my name
You know I stand tall on icy lies all bound to break
So fault the cracks and my mistakes, melt away my words and rage
I'm strong
Oh, I'm strong
Don't let the night fade too quickly
As starlight flickers in your eyes
Catching fireflies on summer nights,
(I'm) spinning dreams that I can't hide
While I circle 'round your flame
Oh, you make me lust for the life we said we never would
And I'm lost in your fire
I'm breaking my word,
but I hurt when you brush the scars that I buried here
I never meant to make this worse
But love stacked the deck and my trick didn't work
I'll bear my truth no matter how
bad it hurts, you've always known that
Now you know what I'm worth
Nothing, Love
I'll move as the tide flows
Let power break me and drown the light of hope
I'll singe my lungs to bring me resolve
And I'll spread my wings—just to clip them off
I'm strong
Shifty illusions, Love
I'm strong
Oh, let the irons heat up
I'm strong
Couldn't move to the fire fast enough
I'm strong
A shifty illusion, Love
Crack my illusions, Love
I'm weak in the blaze of your touch
I won't chase you forever
But know that right now
You're the fire in my flame
And I won't put it out
When the lies melt down, my Love, the truth will seep out
But till then I'll keep to my shadows and doubt
