Runnin backwards on a stormy ride
Disillusion in your wake
Overload - it's time to run and hide
Burn your virtue on a stake

Relyin on everyone to break your fall
Is gonna leave you alone at the end of it all

You're life's an illusion - Your headed out to sea
You're wading through quicksand - it's getting hard to breathe
Alone in your silence - it's time to take control
Your life's an illusion - so step up and save your soul

You laid you hopes out on an empty beach
But the tide come in & washed 'em all away
It ain't no use cryin
Or beggin on your knees
Now's the time to take you some responsibility!

Relyin on everyone to break your fall
Is gonna leave you alone at the end of it all

You're life's an illusion - Your headed out to sea
You're wading through quicksand - it's getting hard to breathe
Alone in your silence - it's time to take control
Your life's an illusion - so step up and save your soul

Can't see past your fantasy filled ways
Your skies are dark and a storm is rollin in
I won't be your savior
I can't stop the rain
But I can see a trainwreck a-comin now
and you're standin in the way

Relyin on everyone to break your fall
Is gonna leave you alone at the end of it all

You're life's an illusion - Your headed out to sea
You're wading through quicksand - it's getting hard to breathe
Alone in your silence - it's time to take control
Your life's an illusion - so step up

You're life's an illusion - Your headed out to sea
You're wading through quicksand - it's getting hard to breathe
Alone in your silence - it's time to take control
Your life's an illusion - so step up
