Illusion
Seeds of hope that's planted deep
Deep beneath the illusion of shade
A shade of light, a spark of joy
Just an illusion that turns to grey
Been waiting too long, hope is owned
Owned by the stars and bright big moon
Moon in the day, an illusion we see
It will be the same again for might it be
The fruit swells as the deeds of it
Deeds that were good but weak
Weak was the soul and strong was the gloom
Gloomy day and the sun it was all doomed
Own was the enemy, others were kind
Kind to the sparkling joyous soul
Soul hath be kind, it was all need
In reality it was just an illusion of greed
I've got no hate or grudge against 'em
Just the soul now wants to stay away
For I was just a child in need of help
Got bitter words when needed light and rays
Doom in the day some spark at night
That's all I've got to see if I'm right
Night and day it feels the same indeed
For I was once a soul with happiness in need
Though the gloom takes over today
There'll be a day I'll loose that within
Within the boundaries that's fair and just
To this soul once and for all
