lyrics
I’m a simple visionary idealist,
With a lot of temporary desire for success,
Seems to always be a curiosity as to why,
These intentions couldn’t possibly be anymore solidified,
Focused on and wandered off in search of sight,
Maybe I’m not good enough for this kind of bright light,
Sun radiates on my skin cause I still yearn,
Instead of reaching for passions I’ll know what it means to burn
Self-reflection mixed with alcohol (I almost caught you),
I saved myself by avoiding the fall (I almost caught you believing in me),
Misdirection’s make for fond farewells (I almost caught you),
Should we say we threw away the dreams ourselves? (I almost caught you believing in me)
Old buildings and worn brick walls, young people inside,
Caffeine that caps our youth, what more could we hide?
Jealousy strikes the closest hearts, but I’m not the type,
Someone else got the forbidden fruit, what’s it supposed to taste like?
Question my everything, mistrust in decency,
I used to call you my friend, I think I’m trying my best,
And is anybody worried at all, I don’t think so,
That their dreams might be nothing at all, I won’t believe no,
Gave up my devotion, the notion was stolen from me,
Gave up in believing, achieving is nothing
Self-reflection mixed with alcohol (I almost caught you),
I saved myself by avoiding the fall (I almost caught you believing in me),
Misdirection’s make for fond farewells (I almost caught you),
Should we say we threw away the dreams ourselves? (I almost caught you believing in me)
I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold, I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold,
I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold, I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold to ourselves
Take one look, did we miss our chance?
Safe and sound in my mind,
These beliefs won’t make it to light
Self-reflection mixed with alcohol (I almost caught you),
I saved myself by avoiding the fall (I almost caught you believing in me),
Misdirection’s make for fond farewells (I almost caught you),
Should we say we threw away the dreams ourselves? (I almost caught you believing in me)
I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold, I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold,
I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold, I guess we’re full on the illusions we sold to ourselves
