Illusion

We build a nation
A place to belong
We were hand, hand in glove
We never had enough

Somehow we failed
Somewhere derailed
Oh my heart broke down
It will never be the same
Never be the same

This has been an illusion
But how could I have known
I'm writing down all my conclusions
So I could let you go

This is what we lost
A future and the cause
Full of ideals
... For belief
Backbone to the spirit
Still I can't believe it

This is called a disillusion
But how could I have known (with all we ever had)
I'm writing down all my conclusions
It's time to let you go

This has been an illusion
Of all we ever had
I'm writing down all my conclusions
So I will not forget
