The Grandest Illusion Lyrics

An everlasting, stripping vacuum

Of mascaraed eyes and heavy costumes

I play the parts that no one wanted

Never the home, always the haunted

They mechanize the pulling strings

So I can relive the suffering

With no one ever seeing a thing

It's the grandest illusion

Wading in an ocean, broken arms

Don't let me drown

Don't let me drown

Save me

All I want now is for you to let me come home

Just let me come home, darling

These flip-back chairs, they creak so loud

The curtain lifts like a burial shroud

They tell me I'm much better rewritten

Don't hand me cat shit and call it a kitten

I've burned their remains to wake the ghosts

Of Cash, Cobain, and Buckley to boast to them

But mostly, their eyes just stayed closed

And then...I'm a grand illusion...

You've got me wading in an ocean, broken arms

Don't let me drown

Don't let me drown

Save me

All I want now is for you to let me come home

Let me come

Let me come

Let me come home

Let me come

Let me come

Home

Let me come

Let me come

Let me come home

Let me come

Let me come

Home

Let me come

Let me come

Let me come home

Let me come

Let me come

Home

Save me

Come

Save me

Come
