Your Illusions

Your Illusions — cover art

About this song

Loving someone who built castles in the sky. He went high when they went low, tried a million times, held their hand at 11 at night — and still got the crown stabbed through his heart. So: build your illusions, fight your intrusions. He'll keep the truth of you and I. Someday you'll know why.

Lyrics

You will never know how How much I lost, how much I lost Just to love you Just to hold you You will never know how How much I tried How much I cried Just to save you And not to blame you When you went low, I went high Oh, I tried a million times Saw the fear and sadness in your eyes When you went up, you put me down Stabbed my heart with your crown And you never turned back around So build your illusions Build your illusions And castles in the sky I know the truth Baby I'll always know the truth Fight your intrusions Fight your intrusions And the truth of you and I Someday you'll know why Someday you'll know why Someday you'll know why Someday you'll know why Oh I hate how your father You father did nothing When you said you were afraid To lose control over your thoughts Hurt yourself and give up I wonder, is it too late Is this your fate Going to therapy to play pretend But does it really make a difference? When it's 11 at night and I'm still called up To hold your hand (I don't understand) So build your illusions Build your illusions And castles in the sky Some day you'll know Oh some day you'll know Fight your intrusions Fight your intrusions And the truth of you and I Someday you'll know why Someday you'll know why Someday you'll know why Someday you'll know why Baby I know the truth Baby I know you know I do
