STATE OF ILLUSION LYRICS

1. The Price You Pay


Breathe a breath of free air, isn't it what you wanted?
Or do you even care about the path you've chosen?
Look around and see the damage you're still doing
Look around and see the hell in which you're living

And I'd love to be the one to pull you from your grave
But it's time for you to wake and see the ugly mess you've made

Blame it on a bitter pill, blame it on your pain
Blame it on the ones who only ever gave you everything
I breathed life into your lungs, but who am I to say?
They did all they could to save you
And their heart's the price you paid along the way

Did you break away, free from the chains that held you?
Or were you just afraid? Afraid that the truth would seep through?
A knife in the back of the hand that feeds you
Bitter is the taste of blood that we once knew

And I'd love to be the one to pull you from this mess you've made
But it's time for you to wake and see you're standing in your grave


2. Blind


With each step, I confess I feel you slip away
Drift away
Take the time, read my mind--you'll see me lose control
I lose control
You're all I have

If you could only see through my eyes
If only you weren't so blind
You'd see each step you take
Makes my heart break
Makes my heart break

I'm alone, I've become so cold
I give you what's left of me
You're all I have, just grab my hand
And I'll give you a broken man

With each step, I confess
You're all I have
You're all I have


3. Find Yourself


It's over now, but the shadow still remains
Like a ghost from the past that won't go away
How could so much love bring so much hate?
But you always saw things differently

You tried so hard to carry on
But now your soul is bleeding
Your pride could only save you for so long
And now you find yourself
You find yourself alone

The mirror will show you who's really to blame
Always the victim, you couldn't live with the shame
Medicate your imaginary pain
But you always had to run away

I tried so hard to carry on
But now my soul is bleeding
I tried to save you for so long
But now you find yourself
You find yourself alone


4. Breathe


Well, the hands begin to fade
And time slips away
And everything has changed
I feel so incomplete
I feel so incomplete

And I can't live without you here anymore
I can't breathe
But as the walls crash down around me
The waves are slowly rising to carry me
Back to you

And our time begins to fade
And our hands slip away
And everything has changed
Just give me one more day
Give me one more day

I can't breathe


5. Another Alibi


Another tear, she feels she's lost it all
Another pill, all it took for you to fall
Another stone to throw at what remains
Another rose to lay upon your grave
You stole her everything, the day
You walked away

Let another liar's lullaby be the wind beneath your wings
And another tempting sirens cry lend you imaginary peace
But in the world you leave behind, you know you'll come to find
All this time, your life was just another alibi

Another scar is all that she can take
Another lie to cover up the trace
Another swear to the heavens filled with rage
Another prayer with a hope that you will change

But there's still time to change your life

So, let another liar's lullaby be the wind beneath your wings
Let the siren tempt you one more time for another day of peace
But in the world you leave behind, you know you'll come to find
All this time, your life was just another alibi
Just another alibi


6. Casey


He packs his bags, not knowing if he'll ever come back home
No turning back, this is the path he chose to walk alone
He'll never know the countless thoughts and prayers that follow
He'll never know the hearts that have been broken

He's a hero and a friend
His angel in heaven watches over him

Each night, I pray the winds will bring him safely back home
And he'll walk away from the nightmare and finally see the sun
He'll never show the scars that left him feeling hollow
He'll never know the pride he has awoken

A hero, a hero and a friend


7. Over


Will you never learn to shut your mouth?
Open up to let the ignorance out
At night you dream of your perfect world
The voice of reason is seldom heard

Be careful what you wish for

The more you say, the less you think
And I can't fight you anymore
The more you take, the less you gain
In my eyes, this is over

Say what you will about my life
Let heaven judge our souls this time


8. So Here We Are


Take a breath and see the truth that lies beneath
A heavy heart caused by a planted seed
And I will fall into your arms again
But will you keep from swaying in the wind?

The storm will come to blow us away
And when it's done will you remain?

So here we are again
Letting our preconceptions win
I followed my heart while you chased your stars
Then you let your walls cave in
And take my heart with them
They took my heart with them

Take a breath and see that I will never leave
And I'll walk this road until I've achieved my dreams
And you will falls into my arms again
And I will keep from swaying in the wind

A life of loneliness won't help you reach the end
And you will find no rest
Because you wander down this road
All alone


9. Falls Apart


Tear out the page as if it were never written
Erase the name you wear upon your heart
Throw away the promises
And cover up the emptiness with lies
Left in the wake

Will you let a tear fall
When you think of all you've lost?

As I wake from walking in my sleep
I've been lost from the start
But I'll continue to hold what I believe
As my world falls apart

Stirred awake only to find your ashes
Left in the place I used to call my heart
We throw away our innocence
And gaze upon the ruins that we've made
Along the way

Will we let another tear fall
When we see what we've become?

The mist has lifted
With sober eyes we finally see
All we've been given
All that we're supposed to be
We stand before this desolation
We must move in one direction


10. Reach The End


Another night, I can't sleep again
And in this light, I can see no end
And I can't rest my weary eyes tonight
Inspired by this dream I have to chase
Always

I'm not afraid of falling, you see
Because I will get back up again
And I will brave the darkness because I
Will keep on pushing until
I have reached the end

Apathetic world, I have freed myself
The grip you had on me, it has worn out
And I won't compromise who I am inside for you
For you

Just walk away, because I'll never change
I've dug my own grave

I will reach the end


11. Dark Angel


I know you have no wings, but you play the part of the angel so well
And after you lull us all to sleep, then you'll creep right in
And make a mess of everything
But why can't you see
I don't believe your messianic lies?

I'll keep on looking to the sky
You lead, I'll never follow
Because there's no tomorrow

Dark Angel, be gentle when you send in the rains to wash us away
Dark Angel, without you, we'll make it through the darkest day
Dark Angel, don't you know? Where you lead I won't follow
Dark Angel, with you in control
Then there's no tomorrow

You'll never die for me but you play the part of the hero so well
And after you lull us all to sleep then you'll creep right in
And make a mess of everything

Dark Angel, be gentle when you send in the rains to wash us away
Dark Angel, don't you know that there's no tomorrow?
Dark Angel, don't you know? Where you lead I won't follow
Dark Angel, with you in control
Then there's no tomorrow
Because there's no tomorrow


12. Wings And A Rose


The time has come for us to say goodbye
I did all I could to make you fly
Consciously, you chose to walk down the fiery road
And you cast off your wings and hold onto your rose

You fall to your hands and knees
Praying, "Father please forgive me, for I know not what I do"
But I know you
You knew it all along, but you weren't strong enough
And now there's nothing left that I can do
It's up to you

Alone you gaze into the future that you've made
The life you've lived cannot be erased
You sit and wait for a savior to take you away
But until you find yourself, nothing's every going to change

You take what the Giver's given to you
And this is what you choose, this is what you choose
And I'm always in the distance and I'll never give up on you
But to send a prayer to Heaven is all that I can do

The time has come for us to say goodbye
I did all I could to make you fly
I tried


13. Open Your Eyes


Break the chains that your mind has placed upon you
And hate the way you blame me for what happened to you
And shake the vice that your body's gotten used to
And face the light and see there's no time left for you to lose

You'll never get away
There's still the Devil left to pay

Can't you see your darkness in this light?
I'd rather be alone than live a life spent choking on the
Dust you feed
The ashes greyed your mind
You know that I believe
It's time for you to open up your eyes

Break away from the leech that plagues upon your mind
Hate the name you've chosen for yourself along the way
Parasite, or can't you see the monster you've become?
Face the lie and look into the damage you have done

You fall apart, you cannot comprehend this
You fall apart, why can't you see the end of this?
You fall apart and yet you still cannot comprehend the severity of this
And I can't help you anymore
Pray--There's no time left for you to choose
Pray--May He have mercy on you
You'll never get away
You'll never get away
There's still the Devil left to pay...
