Illusions Lyrics

I'm aware of all my choices

But still I must decide

No one to help my depression

I am my only guide

I have travelled to the galaxy's end

Seen the earth in all it's true fame

Not much there just a speck in the void

Now how can anything remain the same

All our lives are mere illusions

And false perceptions of what is real

Illusions of knowledge are in our minds

Real truths we can not find

I've spent my life trying to explain

To a race that won't comprehend

They listen pretending to understand

They hear what I say but not what I intend

We live our lives in perfect pride

Taking death as it comes in stride

And as every man goes to rest

A final act of nature's conquest

On a decaying old oak tree

In it's own reality

An owl lives on undisturbed

No one notes it will not die

All our lives are mere illusions

And false perceptions of what is real

Illusions of knowledge are in our minds

Real truths we can not find

I've spent my life trying to explain

To a race that won't comprehend

They listen pretending to understand

They hear what I say but not what I intend
