Delusion of Love
Delusion of Love
True love
Nothing but a cruel delusion
A game you play
To survive
In this concrete jungle
Rushes of adrenalin
Consume your emotions
Floating on clouds of euphoria
Then crashing like a tidal wave
On the evening surf
Choking on the candy coated dreams
That bring you solace
When acid rains inside your soul
Believing in the lies of fairytales
Walking blindfolded
Into his chamber of death
Needing his love to feel alive
Existing only for an illusion
Living for it everyday
Even though we are left in lonely solitude
In the cemetary of decaying love
And shattered promises
Time after time
A rewarding demise
Our instincts make us chase
What will only bring us torment
Like a hypnotic drug
Addicted to the thrill
Of this twisted merry go round of torture
