Breaking Your Illusion.
I won't wait until there's blood on my hands,
I know that I cannot change you.
So much of what's happening, I can't understand.
It would be so easy to blame you.
Hung up in exile, outside the castle wall,
but I can't find my way in...
Exerting powers, it don't matter at all.
You breathe unforgettable sin.
(chorus) Maybe I'll rise, ..but maybe I'll fall.
Could be that it ain't my choosing.
I'm just asking for a little of your time,
I'm just breaking your illusion.
I've been standing in the shadows of your dreams.
Without me, you'd never make it.
Been pushed down by your addled little schemes,
I had to sit here and take it.
(chorus)
(bridge)
What do you do honey, with my love?
I'll be running for the rest of my life.
Just a fool, now I've really had enough.
I can't wait for my time to arrive.
I only wonder, just what I have the power to do.
It's just a game of suspicion.
I'm part of your masterplan.
Is there a chance I can make you listen?
('Cause you got me eating from the palm of your hand.)
(chorus)
Next song: Fallback Man.
