The Illusionist
Unraveling the Illusion: A Journey through Silent Agony
Lyrics
We are in agony
We are experiencing intense pain and distress.
Relying on mockery
We depend on derision or scorn as a coping mechanism.
The fortress of nations crumbles
The powerful structures of nations are collapsing.
Still your thoughts of shit are more valued
Despite the world crumbling, trivial thoughts seem more significant.
Tempering with your stand
Interfering with your position or beliefs.
Try to see, but you’re in the way
Attempting to understand, but obstacles hinder your perception.
A breeze of judgement pass you by
Judgmental influences pass without notice.
(You shut it down, and push it right back)
Suppressing and dismissing external opinions.
Always so scared, never any fear
Constantly anxious but lacking genuine fear.
Open your eyes and let it clear
Encouragement to open one's eyes and gain clarity.
Much more exists, not only you
A reminder that existence is not solely about an individual.
A self-made god, oh yes it’s true
Acknowledging the self as a creator of personal beliefs.
How can it be, that most of the silence is so loud
Questioning why silence can be so overwhelming.
How can it be, when I’m all alone, I’m in a crowd
Feeling alone even in a crowd.
Looking for a sign
Searching for guidance or direction.
Conversations die with sighs
Conversations fade away with heavy sighs.
You brush it off and keep walking on
Ignoring difficulties and continuing forward.
(Never understood, even after it's gone)
Failure to comprehend, even after the moment has passed.
Always so scared, never any fear
Persistently afraid without experiencing genuine fear.
Open your eyes and let it clear
Encouragement to gain insight by opening one's eyes.
Much more exists, not only you
A reminder that the world involves more than just one individual.
A self-made god, oh yes it’s true
Acknowledging the self as a creator of personal beliefs (repeated).
How can it be, that most of the silence is so loud
Questioning the paradox of loud silence.
How can it be, when I’m all alone, I’m in a crowd
Feeling isolated even in a crowd (repeated).
I’m standing so tall, what matters should be right down by my knees
Standing tall, but what truly matters is neglected.
But in the end, I’m just like everyone else
Realizing inherent commonality despite external differences.
Distant is our dream
Our dreams seem distant.
A place, where open minds are free
Yearning for a place where open-mindedness prevails.
(Where open minds are free)
A repetition emphasizing the desire for freedom of thought.
If they cannot see
If others fail to perceive, then a suggestion to explore together.
Then please, we can go just you and me
An alternative world seems appealing, but reality is harsh.
In a different world we would
Leaders and idols are present, carrying influence.
But reality is so cruel
Acknowledging the infection or negative impact on society.
Leaders and idols roam
Questioning the paradox of loud silence (repeated).
(Infected, but so are you)
Feeling isolated even in a crowd (repeated).
How can it be, that most of the silence is so loud
Standing tall, but what truly matters is neglected (repeated).
How can it be, when I’m all alone, I’m in a crowd
Realizing inherent commonality despite external differences (repeated).
I’m standing so tall, what matters should be right down by my knees
Questioning the paradox of loud silence (repeated).
But in the end, I’m just like everyone else
Feeling isolated even in a crowd (repeated).
