Gone away are the golden days

Just a page in my diary

So here I am, a utopian citizen

Still convinced there's no such thing as idealism



Memories they're following me like a shadow now

And I'm dreaming 

And I've already suffered the fever of disbelief



I've seen your act

And I know all the facts

I'm still in love with who I wish you were 

It ain't hard to see

Who you are underneath

I'm still in love with who I wish you were

And I wish you were here



I was true as the sky is blue

I couldn't soon say the same for you

So now I find denial in my eyes

I'm mesmerized by the picture that's in my mind



Tell me when I'll finally see your shallow heart

For what it is

Cause I don't want to keep on believing in illusions



[Chorus]



Sometimes I can't explain

And I'm so sorry that I can't

I'll try to concentrate

On your true identity



[Chorus]
