Freedom Is Illusion by Reach For Andromeda Lyrics

It came to me in a dream
As I stood under the starlight and the moonlights' beam
A beast hiding in the depths
Sliding its claw down the middle of my chest
It took my life
It tried to take my consciousness and control all my time
I knew these thoughts were its gateway into the world

So I wake up
Slaughter every tyrant and then take up
All of their tendencies

And I stood over the crowd
Staring into the masses of people brainwashed by government-sponsored media
Brainwashed by holy books
And trained by public education

And I said, "Do you think you have freedom?
If so, you gave into delusion!
Do you think your life has meaning?
Freedom is an illusion!
"You can't just close your eyes
And ignore what isn't pastels and butterflies
Disregarding your demise
Why are you so unsatisfied?"

War

Breaks out, riots assemble
I am the liar? Then come disassemble my throne
I've built upon the truth
Destroy all in attempt to defile my name

Floating in a dream
I've lived a thousand lives it seems

You can't just close your eyes
And ignore what isn't pastels and butterflies
Disregarding your demise
Why are you so unsatisfied?

You can't just close your eyes
And ignore what isn't pastels and butterflies
Ignoring your demise
Why are you so unsatisfied?
