Illusion

When image starts to fade
The rumors set the vibe
When tepid visions take the stage
Your dreams get set aside
Your shallow smile can’t hide the way
You’re never satisfied
Still you hold the tears inside
Pretending you’re all right
Sometimes nothing goes your way
Pretend you don’t mind taking second place
So what does this mean to be in love with the fame?
It’s an illusion of time
Will you be alright?
If we can’t last a day
Then nothing’s left to hide
When everything you made to me
Pushes me away
