Illusion

My mind keeps playing tricks on me.
Everywhere I look, there you are.
Looking right back into my eyes
Telling me how much you love me.
How could I have fell for it?
The greatest illusion,
Is you said that you loved me.

My heart broken, counting down seconds.
Somehow nobody saw what you did.
The wound you left just keep bleeding.
Those seconds are part of a time bomb.
I am dying on the inside.
The greatest illusion,
Is that I am smiling on the outside.

I want to feel something, anything.
Because being numb is beginning to hurt.
This emptiness is just too much.
I gave up on life, love, everything.
Have I lost sight of happiness?
The greatest illusion,
Is the person I pretend to be.
