Illusions Lyrics

Middle of the night and it's gettin' so hard to breathe
You can't sleep, can't think, can't hardly dream
Do you feel what the world wants you to be?Open your eyes and just see what the world is
Open your mind and your free
There's more in this world than we seeJust leave these illusions behind
Run with me
If all of the things that you thought you would be
Pass you byWe'll find what we need in our lives
We'll find what we need in our livesI spent a lifetime hoping it would come to me
Gettin' lost in the lies I believed
We're covered by a mask that we think is our sin
But never realize that the truth is withinOpen your eyes and just see what the world is
Open your eyes and your free
There's more in this world than we seeJust leave these illusions behind
Run with me
If all of the things that you thought you would be
Pass you byWe'll find what we need in our lives
We'll find what we need in our lives

And what are you hiding from?Is it safe there inside your walls?
'Cause your chance is bound to come
If you're strong enough to live at allWe'll find what we need in our lives
We'll find what we need in our livesOpen your eyes and just see what the world is
Open your mind and you're free
There's more in this world than we seeJust leave these illusions behind
Run with me
If all of the things that you thought you would be
Pass you byWe'll find what we need in our lives
We'll find what we need in our lives
