The Love Illusion
When the butterflies distract you
Soaring through your body on cloud nine
Speeding hearts run a great marathon
Making it first through the finish line
All the highs lifting you up up up
Floating through the care free clouds
Until a storm starts to brew
Pouring down rain and all your doubts
The fairytale life isn’t often lived
As the harsh reality starts to sink in
Realizing not everything was as it seemed
The troubles stirring chaotically within
While the lies fade into darkness
The truths come towards the light
When it may be too late to turn back
It’s not too late to take flight
The blurry lines become clear
As you bravely take a stand
You must be your own hero
You’ve experienced your pain firsthand
You’re by your own side
The only one to rely on is you
Don’t let the negative inner voice
Succeed or come through
Done with the illusion I once lived in
Done with the darkness you omit
You’ve caused me so much pain
Yet the love I feel for you blinds me of it
