The Depth of Self-Delusion

I could be foreign forever to your otherland

I could be foreign forevermore to your promiseland

One life was great, but another…

No, I don't want to live on the edge

I won't follow you

I found my own

I will stay

I could be foreign forever to your hastenland

I could be foreign forevermore to your neverland

One little brick, then another,

And I will build that wall anyway

You can find me there,

Rested and calm, without mask

This is where I will stay

Look around where we are who we are

What we always want

Twenty-four, seven, three sixty-five

Sometimes little more

I was chasing your shadow,

Not knowing I'd become your slave

I could be foreign forever to your otherland

I could be foreign forevermore to your promiseland

One life was great, but another…

No, I don't want to live on the edge

I won't follow you

I found my own

I will stay

I could stay forevermore

I've said a farewell to never-ending smiles

I did not look good in red

From my place I can finally see

How much of this shade I called myself was me,

And what was left behind

I could be foreign forever to your otherland

I could be foreign forevermore to your promiseland

One life was great, but another…

No, I don't want to live on the edge

I won't follow you

I found my own

I will stay

I could stay forevermore

I've said a farewell to never-ending smiles

From my place I can finally see

How much of this shade I called myself was me,

And what was left behind
