Lyrics
This is illusion
I know it's hard to tell
How mixed up you feel
Hoping what you need
Is behind every door
Each time you get hurt
I don't want you to change
'Cause everyone has hopes
You're human after all
The feeling sometimes
Wishing you were someone else
Feeling as though
You never belonged
This feeling is not sadness
It's not joy
I truly understand
Please don't cry now
Please don't go
I want you to stay
I'm begging you, please
Please don't leave here
I don't want you to hate
For all the hurt that you feel
The world is just illusion
Trying to change you
Being like you are
Well, this is something else
Who would comprehend?
But some that too late claim
Divine purpose
Blesses them
It is not what I believe
And it doesn't matter anyway
A part of your soul
Ties you to the next world
Or maybe to the last
I'm not sure
What I do know
To us the world is different
As we are to the world
You know that
Please don't go
I want you to stay
I'm begging you, please
Please don't leave here
I don't want you to hate
For all the hurt that you feel
This world is just illusion
Trying to change you
Please don't go
I want you to stay
I'm begging you, please
Please don't leave here
I don't want you to hate
For all the hurt that you feel
This world is illusion
Trying to change you
Please don't go
I want you to stay
I'm begging you, please
Please don't leave here
I don't want you to hate
For all the hurt that you feel
This world is just illusion
Trying to change you
Please don't go
I want you to stay
I'm begging you, please
Please don't leave here
I don't want you to hate
For all this hurt that you feel
'Cause this world is just illusion
Trying to change you
Dankeschön
