It's an illusion Can't believe what you hear Don't believe what you read Here and gone in a day Not what it seems this American dream Just drifting away After all that we've seem A complete waste of time Just a nursery rhyme

I can’t believe that someone like you Surrenders every element of you And you abuse it So someone you love, you really love May never seen the wonderful in you Why, it’s why you do it Then I don’t know why they call you A dane when you look in the mirror

'Cause I know he's here He's everywhere Take a look around oh and you will see That cross we bear It's in the air Lord we thank you for these gifted hands I remember the day that he came in I can't believe how long it's been Like a poet, he began to play

And I can't wait to see the sunrise again (It's moments like this) I am what you'll never be To better what I am I stand alone and breathe again I won't stop until this is through You won't hear lies from me I dreamed that you had died I'm forever alone

I was down but now I can see The pain, the hurt, the misery Oh Lord, it's been a long time The death, the lies, in lies the truth All that it is, what was, ain't true Doing my best I'll try and get it next time This cross you bare I've come to carry for

I don't know if I was dreaming And dreams aren't enough Life is so lonely I need someone to believe in Can't you see that's everything to me That's enough I, I know I'm a dreamer It's easy to see I want to be a believer

And I, I never needed to lie Can't you see I believe in my heart when I'm saying It's love that you see Love is for giving I know I'm just livin' for you Livin' without you never could be so wrong Don't need to say it, I never waited so long Thinking

Count on me through thick and thin A friendship that will never end When you are weak, I will be strong Helping you to carry on Call on me, I will be there, don't be afraid Please believe me when I say, count on I can see that it's hurting you, I can

With my lightnin' bolts a glowin' Somethin' filled up My heart with nothin' Someone told me not to cry Now that I'm older My heart's colder And I can see that it's a lie Children wake up Hold your mistake up

Lies and deceiving is what I'm believing Up to my knees so hard to breathe It helps that you aren't there Can't figure out what's the right thing for me Guess I'll have to wait and see So understanding but so far from the truth It's what I have to live
