illusions - ryan cabrera

Middle of the night and it's getting so hard to breathe.
You can't sleep, can't think, can't hardly dream.
Do you fear what the world wants you to be?

Open your eyes and just see what the world is,
Open your mind and you're free.

There's more in this world than we see,
Just leave these illusions behind and run with me.
If all of the things that you thought you would be,
Pass you by.
We'll find what we need in our lives.
We'll find what we need in our lives.

I spent a lifetime hoping it would come to me.
Getting lost in the lies I believed.
We're covered by a mask that we think is our sin,
But we never realized that the truth is within.

Open your eyes and just see what the world is,
Open your mind and you're free.

There's more in this world than we see,
Just leave these illusions behind and run with me.
If all of the things that you thought you would be,
Pass you by.

And what are you hiding from?
Is it safe there inside your walls?
'Cause your chance is bound to come,
If you're strong enough to live at all.

We'll find what we need in our lives.
We'll find what we need in our lives.

Open your eyes and just see what the world is,
Open your mind and you're free.

There's more in this world than we see,
Just leave these illusions behind and run with me.
If all of the things that you thought you would be,
Pass you by. Pass you by.

There's more in this world than we see,
Just leave these illusions behind and run with me.
If all of the things that you thought you would be,
Pass you by.

We'll find what we need in our lives.
We'll find what we need in our lives.
