"Illusion Of Bliss" lyrics
"Illusion Of Bliss"
You know, right now
I miss someone that I love
Or fell in love with
I don't wanna cry or nothing, but
I'ma just get straight to the story
I'm a twenty-nine year-old addict
What would you know? What would you do
If you had no control over what you pursue?
You talk yourself, tell yourself, "Baby, I'm better than this"
All that I'm fighting, I don't wanna resist
And so it persists like a bottomless kiss
An illusion of bliss, an illusion of bliss
And so it persists like a bottomless kiss
An illusion of bliss, an illusion of bliss, hey
Live in prison of blood and flesh
An easy way out is this high, I confess
So what you looking at? What you wanna say?
You can't save me, baby
I don't want it no way
And so it persists like a bottomless kiss
An illusion of bliss, an illusion of bliss
And so it persists like a bottomless kiss
An illusion of bliss, an illusion of bliss, ah
See, my life ain't no easy road
I don't know which way to go
Won't somebody see me when I can't see myself?
Won't somebody listen before I need help?
I'm sick of being judged, sick of being sick
Tell me, where's the love?
Tired of being tricked
Sick of being high, sick of being low
Sick of all the lies, putting on a show
And so it persists, and so it persists
Like a bottomless kiss
An illusion of bliss, an illusion of bliss
I don't wanna be a fallen angel
I don't wanna be a fallen angel
Don't say I'm gone, gone
I don't wanna be a fallen angel
Don't say I'm lost, lost
I don't wanna be a fallen angel
Don't say I'm gone, gone
I don't wanna be a fallen angel
Don't say I'm lost, lost
I don't wanna be a fallen angel

Lianne La Havas - "Wonderful" Did the world get a little bit colder?
No wiser, just a little bit older
So slow we were bound to fall over, oh (hmm, hmm)

Lost my way
No one ever asked me why
Tried to move along
Never looking back

Alone now, my friend...

But I hate you on most days
