Chains Of Illusion

Sitting in my room, staring at the wall Super glued down so I just won’t fall I swear I once looked in a basilisk's eyes Can’t help but let this inactivity rise [Chorus] There must be a creature, a demon at my side Or maybe some chains, just hidden out of sight It’s puling me down, no it can’t be me That’s what I tell myself, that’s what I see Dreading the day, dreading the morning The weeks go by, so many I’m mourning In my bed or at a computer sits a statue of myself Aren’t statues supposed to be proudly standing for themselves? [Chorus] There must be a creature, a demon at my side Or maybe some chains, just hidden out of sight It’s puling me down, no it can’t be me That’s what I tell myself, that’s what I see Put a gun to my foot, I’m considering the other Though I really think I might just not bother Life could really go either way Indifference gives me nothing much to say [Bridge] Life’s an endless shopping list, but I’m out of money Tick a few things off, then add 10 more things Reliant on a tomato to manage all of my things [Chorus] There must be a creature, a demon at my side Or maybe some chains, just hidden out of sight It’s puling me down, no it can’t be me That’s what I tell myself, that’s what I see [Outro] Science and logic are my core beliefs Saying that, and I will be brief I believe in the ghosts, the ghoulies and the sorrow Despite that, I promise I’ll make it to tomorrow [Chorus] There must be a creature, a demon at my side Or maybe some chains, just hidden out of sight It’s puling me down, no it can’t be me That’s what I tell myself, that’s what I see Dreading the day, dreading the morning The weeks go by, so many I’m mourning In my bed or at a computer sits a statue of myself Aren’t statues supposed to be proudly standing for themselves? [Chorus] There must be a creature, a demon at my side Or maybe some chains, just hidden out of sight It’s puling me down, no it can’t be me That’s what I tell myself, that’s what I see Put a gun to my foot, I’m considering the other Though I really think I might just not bother Life could really go either way Indifference gives me nothing much to say [Bridge] Life’s an endless shopping list, but I’m out of money Tick a few things off, then add 10 more Reliant on a tomato to manage my honey Which I use to stave off the rot in my core [Chorus] There must be a creature, a demon at my side Or maybe some chains, just hidden out of sight It’s puling me down, no it can’t be me That’s what I tell myself, that’s what I see [Outro] Science and logic are my core beliefs Saying that, and I will be brief I believe in the ghosts, the ghoulies and the sorrow Despite that, I promise I’ll make it to tomorrow
