Illusions Songtext
von Petrichor

What can I see
With all these walls around me?
All my life I′ve built them up
I'm trapped inside this definition
And I can′t help but feel I'm stuck

Why can't I feel
When every feeling feels so real?
When you see ice, I see fire
My heart is lied to by desire
An iron chain of boundless fear

But if time is an illusion
Then where does that leave me?
Trapped inside an ever-changing dream
A simulation of what will come to pass
Till we can find a way to see past the illusions


What can I know
When water so clear can turn to snow?
All of these questions inside my head
Are fighting a war with me
When all that dictates a tree′s life
Is the color of the stuff that falls from the sky

And some say time is fixed
A fleeting image into our minds
Each wristwatch is our corrosion
Each telescope a time machine
To see the stars of our past lives

Where are my stars?
Where are my stars?

We look through the glass
At twisted objects held up to the other side
Trying to make out shapes and figures
That we can call the truth
