Illusions

I see a dog walking down the street but people are saying it’s a cat
My eyes wouldn’t lie to me
I know my eyes and I clearly see the dog
People are lying to me

The water looks as blue as ever
The best water to be under
But when you sink your head you can see the real ocean
The trash that ruins the purity and the great white that can end your life
Jump in the water looks great they say

Pretty, expensive suits covering an ego as big as the moon
A smile that makes you forget all the bad things done
A dress that makes you forget she’s a bitch because it makes her look beautiful

A handsome boy telling you he loves you
Pretending to be in love
Trying to get in your pants

You see a cloudy day when everybody says it’s lovely that the sun is out today

My eyes lie to me
All these lies under the surface
Should I believe what i see ?
That’s all I’ve ever known

In the mirror a girl I have always known
Somebody I know but sometimes a complete stranger
A girl that people fall in love with easily
Someone to connect with
Someone everybody calls beautiful
A beautiful disaster

But my eyes say something different
And I have to believe my eyes
It’s all I’ve ever known
