Illusions

• As I Lay Dying
• Shadows Are Security

how could i ever go back?

back to the life where i lived amongst the dead

those who have forgotten how to feel

and become slaves to memory and wishful thinking

but your love has set me free

as you awaken every star that has been sleeping in the constellation of my soul

how could i go back to live amongst the dead

those who imprisoned beauty

i never want to leave your arms

so i wait in hope for your embrace

illusions of what i thought was love

now i have clear sight to see that i have left nothing behind
