Delusion
Adam Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴

I'm trying to live my life
But I found myself in a blackhole full of emptiness
Everything is illusional
And I'm trying to hide away
I can see a light delayed
Flying, dying by the dark
It was too bright tonight
But it's fading invaded by the knights
I was trying to have a life
But there was something holding me back
Everything was delusional
And I'm trying not to lose control
I can see a light delayed
Flying, dying by the dark
It was too bright tonight
But it's fading invaded by the knights
I was trying so long
To get a life away
But I'm so damn alone
I'll be drowned again today
I'll be drowned again today
I'll be drowned again today
I can see a light delayed
Falling higher than my dreams
It used to be so bright
But it's sinking now so deep
I was trying to stay strong
But I can't stick to it for too long
There's nothing more to keep
Because I'm falling dead asleep




Because I'm falling dead asleep
Because I'm falling dead asleep
