Illusions wrap round my mind Sweet little lies leave the truth behind Shimmering promises, flash and fade Living in worlds that others made Hours slip through crystal glass While plastic dreams hold me fast Every morning fades to grey As life ebbs away Hours slip through crystal glass While plastic dreams hold me fast Every morning fades to grey As life ebbs away Caught in false reflections Phantom deceptions Where years turn to mist And real life... missed Screens keep glowing with borrowed light Feeding me dreams through endless night Each moment spent in hollow space Leaves reality without a trace Waking to find that Time slipped away Chasing the sparkle Of each empty day Waking to find that Time slipped away Chasing the sparkle Of each empty day Screens keep glowing with borrowed light Feeding me dreams through endless night Each moment spent in hollow space Leaves reality without a trace
