Lyrics

Sometimes I can't help the feeling that I'm

Sometimes there's a sense that I

I'm living a life of illusion

Am experiencing a life that is not genuine or real

And oh, why can't we let it be

Questioning why we can't accept the situation as it is

And see through the hole in this wall of confusion

And see the truth beyond the confusing circumstances

Well, I just can't help the feeling

Expressing the inability to shake the feeling

I'm living a life of illusion

That I'm stuck in a deceptive and misleading existence


Pow, right between the eyes

Suddenly and directly confronted with a harsh reality

Oh, how nature loves her little surprises

Noting the unpredictability inherent in nature

And wow, it all seems so logical now

Realizing that everything now makes logical sense

It's just one of her better disguises

Recognizing that life often disguises itself in various ways

And it comes with no warning

Unexpected events occur without prior notice

And nature loves her little surprises

Reiterating nature's inclination for surprises

A continual crisis

Emphasizing the continuous nature of these surprises


Hey, don't you know it's a waste of your day

Advising against wasting time on futile endeavors

Caught up in endless solutions

Being entangled in endless but meaningless solutions

That have no meaning, just another hunch

Actions without significance, merely speculative guesses

Based upon jumping conclusions

Based on unfounded and rushed assumptions

Endless solutions

Repetition of the idea of endless, futile solutions

Backed up against a wall of confusion

Facing a confusing situation with no clear resolution


I'm living a life of illusion

Reiteration of the feeling of living in a deceptive reality

I'm living a life of illusion

Repetition to emphasize the theme of living in an illusion

I'm living a life of illusion

Reaffirmation of the sense of living in a deceptive existence
