Illusion of Bliss lyrics

[You know right now, I met someone that I love

Or fell in love with

I don't wanna cry or nothing but

Let me just get straight to the story

I'm a 29-year-old addict--]

What would you know

What would you do

If you had no control

Over what you pursue

You talk yourself, tell yourself baby

I'm better than this

And all that I'm fighting

I don't wanna resist

And so it persists, like a bottomless kiss

An illusion of bliss, an illusion of bliss

And so it persists, like a bottomless kiss

An illusion of bliss, an illusion of bliss

I live in a prison

Of blood and flesh

And the easy way out

Is this high I confess

So what you looking out

What you wanna say

You can't save me, baby

And I don't want it no way

And so it persists, like a bottomless kiss

An illusion of bliss, an illusion of bliss

And so it persists, like a bottomless kiss

An illusion of bliss

See, my life ain't no easy road

I don't know which way to go

Won't somebody see me when I can't see myself

Won't somebody listen before I need help

I'm sick of being judged

Sick of being sick

Tell me where's the love

I'm tired of being tricked

Sick of being high

Sick of being low

Sick of all the lies

Putting on a show

And so it persists, and so it persists

Like a bottomless kiss

An illusion of bliss, an illusion of bliss

I, I don't wanna be a falling angel

I, I don't wanna be a falling angel

Don't say I'm gone, gone

I don't wanna be a falling angel

Don't say I'm lost, lost

I don't wanna be a falling angel

Don't say I'm gone, gone

I don't wanna be a falling angel

Don't say I'm lost, lost

I don't wanna be a falling angel
