Illusion of love
It's better than none
Illusion of love
It's better than none

I try I try I try
The only thing I have
Live like you mind my head
Live like you mind my head
When I look around
A stranger to myself
All my friends are gone
All my friends are gone
I cry I cry I cry
Until the day I die
When my tears fade and dry
When my tears fade and dry

She filled me up with expressions of things never dreamed before
She filled my heart with impressions of a world never known
She came and gone, but the world's not as dark as it seemed before
Because, somehow the essence of her lingers when I leave me alone
Because

Illusion of love
It's better than none
Illusion of love
It's better than none

Oh why oh why oh why
I can't sleep at night
The sun is too damn bright
The sun is too damn bright
My head's spinnin' around
With some air in my lungs
My essence is my fault
My essence is my fault
Oh my my oh my
When I look in the mirror
I just see smoke and dust
I just see smoke and dust

Too many days I was praying for her fall
Too many nights I was waiting for her call
Too many times I was trembling in fear
Wasting away every day waiting to disappear
Wasting away every day waiting to disappear
Because
She filled me up with expressions of things never dreamed before
She filled my heart with impressions of a world never known
She came and gone, but the world's not as dark as it seemed before
Because, somehow the essence of her lingers when I leave me alone
