Illusion
Final Shodown Lyrics

Like Icarus approaching the sun
Similar to the Greek mythological figure Icarus who flew too close to the sun, you are recklessly pursuing something that may ultimately lead to your downfall.

Like a moth to a flame
Just like a moth irresistibly attracted to a flame, you are drawn to something that may be dangerous or harmful.

Your wings are burning
Your metaphorical wings, representing your ambitions and aspirations, are being destroyed or compromised.

And hard will be your fall
The consequences of your actions will be severe and difficult to recover from.

A journey among the stars
You are embarking on a fantastical adventure filled with dreams, desires, and aspirations.

Dazzled by a million lights all brighter than sunshine
You are captivated and mesmerized by numerous opportunities and possibilities that seem more enticing and promising than anything you've experienced before.

Intoxicated by the atmosphere
You are deeply influenced and enthralled by the environment or surrounding circumstances, which may cloud your judgement.

Just a low blood rubbing shoulders with the immortals
Despite being ordinary or insignificant, you find yourself in the presence of extraordinary and esteemed individuals, possibly in pursuit of your dreams.

Ready to do anything to keep your head in the stars
You are willing to go to extreme lengths or make sacrifices to maintain your elevated dreams or ambitions.

But your illusion will end
However, the false perception or fantasy you are living in will eventually come crashing down and cease to exist.

Straight from the clouds
Abruptly and forcefully removed from a state of bliss or euphoria.

Right back to the ground
Returning to a reality or a less desirable state, with possibly harsh consequences.

You stepped in a world where you don't belong
You have entered a realm or environment that is not suited or compatible with who you truly are or your true aspirations.

You stepped in a world where you will never belong
You have entered a realm or environment where you will permanently feel out of place or disconnected.

Just for a sip of the nectar, just for a taste of ambrosia
You are willing to sacrifice everything for a mere fleeting moment of pleasure or fulfillment, like the mythical nectar and ambrosia that bestow immortality and divine satisfaction.

Your body's on sale, your soul's perverted
You have devalued and compromised your physical and spiritual self in exchange for the pursuit of your illusions or desires.

And you're willing to do anything, think this is worth it
You are prepared to do whatever it takes, believing that the ends justify the means, even if it means sacrificing your values and principles.

Is it worth enduring the pain
You question whether the suffering or hardships you may face in pursuit of your illusions are truly justified or worthwhile.

Is it worth ignoring the shame
You question whether it is acceptable to disregard the guilt or disgrace associated with your actions in pursuit of your illusions.

It's just an illusion you're living, and this illusion will end
The life you are currently experiencing is merely a fabrication or false perception, and eventually, this facade will come to an end.

Like Icarus approaching the sun
Similar to the Greek mythological figure Icarus who flew too close to the sun, you are recklessly pursuing something that may ultimately lead to your downfall.

Like a moth to a flame
Just like a moth irresistibly attracted to a flame, you are drawn to something that may be dangerous or harmful.

Your wings are burning
Your metaphorical wings, representing your ambitions and aspirations, are being destroyed or compromised.

And hard will be your fall
The consequences of your actions will be severe and difficult to recover from.
