Precious Illusions |
you’ll rescue me right? |
in the exact same way they never did |
I’ll be happy right? |
when your healing powers kick in you’ll complete me right? |
then my life can finally begin |
I’ll be worthy right? |
only when you realize the gem I am? |
but this won’t work now the way it once did |
and I won’t keep it up even though I would love to once I know who I’m not then I’ll know who I am but I know I won’t keep on playing the victim |
these precious illusions in my head did not let me down when I was defenseless |
and parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends |
this ring will help me yet as will you knight in shining armor |
this pill will help me yet as will these boys gone through like water |
but this won’t work as well as the way it once did |
cuz I want to decide between survival and bliss |
and though I know who I’m not I still don’t know who I am but I know I won’t keep on playing the victim |
these precious illusions in my head did not let me down when I was a kid |
and parting with them is like parting with a childhood best friend |
I’ve spent so long firmly looking outside me |
I’ve spent so much time living in survival mode |
