Illusion & Control

Are you settling?

The faces, the shadows

Are fading away

Wasting it all

Wasting it all

Without any direction

And I can't settle down

Without losing something else

Who let

We're exiled in a foreign land

Who let

Nothing is ever done

Dare I place it all inside of something I can't reach?

When I know that I can make it on my own

We could never know

Is it close enough?

Tracing the outline that's fading away

Wasting in all

Wasting in all

Without any direction

And I need something more

Could you make it feel the same?

Who let

We existed in a different place

Who let

Nothing is ever done

Dare I place it all inside of something I can't reach?

When I know that I can make it on my own

We could never know

We were wrong, all the oppositions gone

Made it past all the conflicts of our past

I can't settle down without using someone else

I've been counting the seconds

After the handshake

Under the stairwell

Inside your bedroom you made a promise

I looked away

I'll never forget that

You can't create a portrait

Out of a shadow, out of an idea

You never had

You never wanted

You never could

I'll never forget that
