lyrics

Addicted to Illusions...

You were such a lie that I believed in.
I'm another victim to your treason.
To this day, I'm looking for a reason;
but these fingertips are empty
and yours are full with plenty.
Can I borrow one?
I hate the lack of knowing why
You're high on your supply.
I need to sit and close my eyes,
and slowly die to what we were.

'Cause what we were,
is nothing worse
than what we are.
This is far too hard.
This is far too hard...
I'd rather keep the facade
The truth is not what I want.
I want you in my arms.
I'm far too lost without you.
Oh my god...

I'd kneel to the cross to have you back
to heal what I thought just had to last
Steal what I lost and snatch it,
that's real, from a heart so cracked like glass.
Feels like I'm caught in an Avalanche
Killing me harder than crashing,
head-on with a car in a traffic jam.
I want you to understand the facts.

You were such a lie that I believed in
I'm another victim to your treason
To this day, I'm looking for a reason
But, these fingertips are empty
and yours are full with plenty
Can I borrow one?
I hate the lack of knowing why.
You're high on your supply.
I need to sit and close my eyes
and slowly die to what we were.

'Cause what we were,
is nothing worse
than what we are.
This is far too hard.
This is far too hard...
I'd rather keep the facade
The truth is not what I want.
I want you in my arms.
I'm far too lost without you.
Oh my god...
