Illusions

Take your swollen sense of worth
And give it to anyone
Who finds a worthless piece of shit
A treasure to hoard

Now bow your head and walk in shame
Reliving all the times when your dignity's left behind
How do you trust when your mind deceives?
Illusions ease the pain of your mediocrity

You push, you pull
Hoping you make a change
The results are all the same
Love yourself, self importance
That is our illusion

Grief is forgotten
Your place on this plane
Nothing more, nothing more
Than the scum under my boot

Gone are your moments
Your glory at an end
Flee from your existence back to your sanctuary

Freedom
Failure

How do you trust, when your mind deceives
Illusions ease the pain of your mediocrity
We search for an enemy, but he is already inside us
Narcissism and ego forbid us to hear the pleas

You push, you pull
Hoping you make a change
The results are all the same
Love yourself. Self importance
That is our illusion
