Wheels Of Confusion / The Straightener lyrics

Long ago I wandered through my mind

In the land of fairy tales and stories

Lost in happiness I had no fears

Innocence and love was all I knew

Was it illusion?

Soon the days went passing into years

Happiness just didn't come so easy

Life was more than fairy tales and daydreams

Innocence was just another word

Was it illusion?

Lost in the wheels of confusion

Running through furnace of tears

Eyes full of angered illusion

Hiding in everyday fears

So I found that life is just a game

But you know there's never been a winner

Try your hardest, you'll still be a loser

The world will still be turning when you're gone

Yeah when you're gone!
