Lyrics
There’s a King there’s a fool fighting for who’s gonna rule
The only one who can see is someone who’s broken free
The fool’s a lie in disguise trying hard to mesmerize
The King is waiting just to see who will solve the mystery
This world is an illusion, this world is an illusion this world is an illusion
I’m here today to show the way how to lead the fool astray
Just like he entices you, you can do the same thing too
When he says come with me all you do is count to three
He’ll disappear into the air just like he was never there
This world is an illusion, this world is an illusion this world is an illusion
There’s a man I was told he was driving down the road
Looked aside and he spied a stranger at his side
The light was red he was dead if he would turn his head
The stranger had eyes that could hypnotize
When the light was green he thought he was free and clean
So he turned his head just to have a peak
The next thing he knew he became weak and was overcome
With a strange emotion that took control of him…
Don’t say yes don’t say no just let the moment go
Even when you think you’ve won things can become undone
Don’t get angry don’t have fear just keep this secret safe and near
Remember to count to three and then you’ll feel yourself break free
This world is an illusion, this world is an illusion this world is an illusion
