Just an Illusion
Sylvering Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
There's another place another time.
Touching many hearts along the way yeah
Hoping that I'll never have to say
It's just an illusion, illusion, illusion.
Follow your emotions anywhere
Never let your feelings get you down.
Open up your eyes and look around
It's just an illusion, illusion, illusion.
Could it be that it's just an illusion
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that it's just an illusion now?
Could it be that it's just an illusion
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that it's just an illusion now?
Could it be a picture in my mind?
Never sure exactly what I'll find.
Only in my dreams I turn you on.
Here for just a moment then you're gone.
It's just an illusion, illusion, illusion.
Could it be that it's just an illusion
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that it's just an illusion now?
Could it be that it's just an illusion
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Could it be that it's just an illusion now?
The lyrics to "Just an Illusion" by Sylvering express the idea of searching for a destiny that may not exist or may be but an illusion. The song's protagonist, driven by these ideals, is searching for something that may only appear temporarily and disappear just as easily. Despite touching many hearts along the way and following emotions that could lead to magic, the singer worries that it may all be for nothing.
The repeated phrase "It's just an illusion" emphasizes this idea that what they are searching for may not be real. The lyrics continue with questions of whether it is all just confusion or if it really could be an illusion in a picture or a moment in their dreams. This song ultimately speaks to the idea that what we may be searching for in life may not be real or long-lasting.

Searching for a destiny that's mine
Looking for a purpose in life that belongs to me
There's another place another time.
Another reality or dimension that exists beyond the current one
Touching many hearts along the way yeah
Impacting and inspiring multiple people during my journey
Hoping that I'll never have to say
Wishing that I never have to confront the possibility that everything is not what it seems

The reality that I perceive may not be entirely accurate or true
Follow your emotions anywhere
Allowing yourself to be guided by your feelings
Is it really magic in the air?

Never let your feelings get you down.

Always uncertain about what lies ahead
Only in my dreams I turn you on.
Only in my imagination or dreams do I feel alive
Here for just a moment then you're gone.
The good things in life are fleeting and do not last forever
It's just an illusion, illusion, illusion.
The truth is not always immediately apparent or discernible
Could it be that it's just an illusion
Perhaps I am fooling myself and the reality is different
Putting me back in all this confusion?
Making me doubt my own perceptions of reality once again

Could it be that it's just an illusion now?
Is there a chance that everything that I perceive is a fabrication?
