Creating a world of false illusion Subconscious paints an unseen scene Yearning on desires out of reach Wandering through the valley of deceit Awareness fills you up with splendorous Then it crashes down so bittersweet On a road that leads to nowhere These perceptions so discrete A desire for nostalgia, bringing back lost memories Trying to find whats locked inside Leads you back to the lesser shades of green Reconstructing happiness when tomorrow brings the pain All is gone in the blink of an eye, when reality shows it's face Embellishing an ugly world with thoughts of purity It's hard to face what lies ahead when nothing is as it seems Opaque are these visions, awake and discard what I once knew Struggling to find the answer, perception lies askew
