Just a foolish game…

World of Lies

Sometimes you wake up from a dream where everything has gone right… mistakes not made, chances not thrown away, love not lost…

Yeah, well… that’s dreamin’ for ya…

The beautiful spring morning you wake up to in the dream turns out to be an icy bedroom at 4 in the morning, sweaty covers kicked off and now too clammy and cold to pull up even as the spring morning slips away in whisps like smoke from an extinguished candle.

And it’s still two hours until dawn.

You close your eyes, afraid to dream — afraid to have it all only to lose it once again.

lyrics
World of Lies

Meet me in the world of lies
meet me in the world of lies
let’s be hypnotized
meet me in the world of lies

You know that love is just a foolish game
Love always fades away
I know that you won’t stay
but at least you’re hear today

Meet me in the world of lies
let’s be hypnotized
Something in me dies
everytime a dream slips by

I know that I’ll always be alone
I know life is just to die
a wise man gives up the world
but I guess I’m just not that wise

Meet me in the world of lies
let’s be hypnotized
Don’t let this dream die
meet me in the world of lies
