Illusion of Control Lyrics

I break my back
In pursuit of perfection
Nothing less
Seems to satisfy
As time goes by
I begin to question
White knuckled fist
Holding emptiness

Desperation
Inside out
Realization
Wanting something more
Trepidation
Full of doubt
Suffocation
Illusion of control

I trust no one
Not even the closest
My burden
My cross to bear
The sky is black
Like the darkest of secrets
All alone
In a sea of fear

chorus

Desperation
Inside out
Realization
Wanting something more
Trepidation
Full of doubt
Suffocation
Illusion of control



In my weakness
I surrender, I am nothing
This illusion
Is crippling
And it is controlling me

Desperation
Inside out
Realization
Wanting something more
Trepidation
Full of doubt
Suffocation
Illusion of control
