Hall of Illusions

Let's take a walk down the hallway
It's a long way
it takes all day

And when we get to the end
you will find a chair
with straps and chains
we slap you in there

Lock you down tight
so you can't move a thread
and pull your eyelids
up over your head

'Cause your about to witness
an illusionary dream
It's just too bad
it isn't worth seeing

You walk in and see
two kids on the floor
They're playing nintendo
and he's got the high score

And sitting behind them
chilling in the chair
is your wife, and you look
oh you aren't there

It's some other man
and they're hand in hand
how she looks so happy
you don't understand

See this is an illusion
it never came true
all because of you.
