Title: Perfect Illusion You walk in light that never fades A painted smile, a perfect shade But I can see behind your eyes The hollow truth, the quiet lies You play the saint, you play the star But I know who you really are A mirror cracked in designer glass A fragile mask that won’t last Don’t you know I see it all? Every rise before the fall You’re a perfect illusion, shining so bright Dancing in shadows, drowning in light Everybody’s watching, nobody knows The truth that you bury wherever you go You’re a perfect illusion… breaking inside Your voice is gold on broken air But silence screams what isn’t there A throne of smoke, a crown of pride Still running from the truth you hide You sell the dream, you sell the pain But every drop just feels the same I watch you fade behind the screen A ghost inside a magazine Don’t you know I see it all? Every rise before the fall You’re a perfect illusion, shining so bright Dancing in shadows, drowning in light Everybody’s watching, nobody knows The truth that you bury wherever you go You’re a perfect illusion… breaking inside Fall apart, don’t pretend The mask will crack, it will end No more fame, no more disguise Only truth behind your eyes You’re a perfect illusion, burning away Nothing you built is here to stay Everybody’s watching, now they see through The broken reflection that used to be you You’re a perfect illusion… fading to truth
