Illusions in My Head (Lryrics LarryP)

Sometimes, I get caught up in this illusion Imagining someone who fits my every vision I built you up in my mind, made you a dream But reality's not as kind as it seems Thought I saw your potential, the promise of change Ignored the red flags, convinced it wasn't strange Tried to fix what wasn't broken, lost sight of the truth Chasing shadows of a version that never knew you When I close my eyes, I see what I want to see A perfect version of you that only exists for me I'm learning to let go of the illusions in my head Facing the reality, moving forward instead Caught up in daydreams, where everything feels right But in the waking world, things don't shine as bright Need to wake up from this reverie, start anew Finding peace with who you are, and seeing the true view
