My illusion, my mistake

Again I dwelled on dreams
And nothing ever turns out as it seemed at first -
like in a curse.
My heart was hungry and so I took the bait.
My illusion, my mistake.

Again I sat and grieved.
Your words had made a dreamer out of me,
I thought so foolishly.
I didn‘t think my heart was gonna break.
My illusion, my mistake.

It hurts when you know 
you have to let it go.
But you want the impossible to happen
Say it isn‘t so.
I don‘t want to let it go.
Don‘t tell me it‘s impossible...

All these words,
how they bleed 
onto the paper infront of me.
But they don’t express what I would like to say.
Unable to sleep, at night I lie awake.
My illusionn, my mistake. 

It sucks when you know
you need to let it go.
But you hope the impossible will happen
Say it isn‘t so.
I don‘t want to let it go.
Don‘t tell me it‘s impossible...

To some
chasing a dream 
might feel contemptible,
It may appear absurd
The most exciting tunes I know are 
melodies that I‘ve never heard.
Let‘s think we‘re growing wings
as we‘re falling from the sky like birds.
Unperturbed.
Superb. 

It still hurts,
It still bleeds,
And It doesn‘t seem to heal.
All my fantasies have turned into aches. 
No, no, no, no, no
I thought that our souls were bound by fate.
My illusiom, my mistake.

my illusion, my mistake

Our imagination and fantasies always exceed reality. So the best love affair is the one you've never had. It seems to be our human dilemma that we're constantly chasing dreams which will forever remain unfulfilled. But music can give these notions a form and make them come alive. As a singer & songwriter I am attempting to capture these moments. Currently I'm based in Shanghai, China, where I've been involved in several RocknRoll-projects. Enjoy my songs and please leave a comment. Cheers!
