Illusions

I know this world is full of illusions
Because nothing is what it seems to be
Every act has painful repercussions
And life provides no chance to flee

When words feel like daggers to the heart
And there is no melody to soothe the ears
Oh, the pain is just a small part
There is nobody to dry the endless tears

Even when I'm hurting all over
I'm somehow immune to the pain
Even if you make me cry
I can hide my tears in the rain

You can't kill me with your words
Just like you can't kill a dead man
And you can't cheat me with your actions
Just like you can't cheat an honest man

So don't even try to break my heart
Maybe you know its already broken
I am no longer affected by you
Or the words that you have spoken

I know this world is full of illusions
And that is exactly what you were
A ghost of my feelings and my thoughts
So close to me but barely there
