Illusion
M.Y. Project Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's getting harder to sleep
When I can't agree with myself
Holding on to these feelings
Leaving behind an empty shell
Submerged in water
I find myself
Falling further, and I'm losing sight
The cold feels familiar
As the warmth from the light fades away
Inside
Sick of second guessing myself
Drowning in my own self-doubt
Shrouded in apprehension
Leaves my mind numb
Believing my own illusions
I, I cant help but feel empty inside
I can't help but feel all alone
Slowly losing my sanity
Descending into eternity
Tides pulled me away from the place
Where I felt safe
Engulfed by the dark
Flowing through this ocean
Of my own uncertainty
Trying to find my purpose
I just want to leave this place
I just want to leave
Sick of second guessing myself
Drowning in my own self-doubt
Shrouded in apprehension
Leaves my mind numb




Believing my own illusions
I just want to leave this place

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to M.Y. Project's song "Illusion" convey a deep sense of internal struggle and emotional turmoil. The opening lines, "It's getting harder to sleep When I can't agree with myself," suggest a dissonance within the singer's mind, highlighting a lack of self-acceptance and inner conflict that is causing sleepless nights. This internal battle is further exemplified by the line "Holding on to these feelings, Leaving behind an empty shell." The singer is grappling with their emotions, holding onto them while feeling detached from their true self.


The metaphor of being "submerged in water" and "falling further" illustrates a sense of being overwhelmed and losing perspective. The coldness and fading light symbolize a loss of warmth and comfort, resulting in feelings of emptiness. The line "Drowning in my own self-doubt, Shrouded in apprehension, Leaves my mind numb" further showcases the singer's struggle with self-belief and the negative impact it has on their mental well-being.


The chorus expresses the singer's yearning for escape, the desire to break free from the confines of their own mind and find a sense of purpose and satisfaction. The repetition of "I just want to leave this place" emphasizes their longing for change and relief from their feelings of emptiness and uncertainty.


Overall, "Illusion" delves into the complex emotions of self-doubt, struggle, and the search for inner peace. It beautifully captures the human experience of navigating one's own mind and the desire for release from negative thoughts and illusions.
