Illusory Love

[Verse 1]
We couldn’t stop ourselves to rethink,
Do our actions even mean a thing?
Baby — hasta la vista!
I can’t stand it — words get lost in numbers,
This isn’t the first time we’ve been on the brink of ending.

You declared war on me, I had no time to say sorry
For that script I wrote so long ago,
Where I captured all your thoughts, stuffed your head with meaning,
Like trying to pull you past the edges of this life.

[Chorus]
We drown in an endless war where mercy’s gone,
Where every look’s a blow, and every move’s a verdict.
We tear ourselves apart, but then we come back on,
Like a forbidden rite that never brings us peace.

We lost our calm, there’s no more faith between us,
We burn the bridges, scorch a heart out of time.
And if it’s all a lie — then why do we carry on?
We call it love — this thing that slowly kills.

[Verse 2]
But my heart’s like stone — I can’t fall in love,
So to numb the ache I chased a false desire.
You told yourself it’s just a dream that passes,
But that was the truth — I’m a heartless killer.

A couple photos left as keepsakes — look, someone else is taken,
I’m not looking for excuses, you’re no judge, this isn’t a court.
I’m condemned by tears, I don’t care that you’re angry.
Let’s go back to the start — when we didn’t know each other yet.

[Chorus]
We drown in an endless war where mercy’s gone,
Where every look’s a blow, and every move’s a verdict.
We tear ourselves apart, but then we come back on,
Like a forbidden rite that never brings us peace.

We lost our calm, there’s no more faith between us,
We burn the bridges, scorch a heart out of time.
And if it’s all a lie — then why do we carry on?
We call it love — this thing that slowly kills.

[Verse 3]
I stopped believing in love, the moment I learned of it,
I hoped to leave this world without ever knowing.
But a phalaenopsis bloomed in the back of my mind,
And I could no longer face this world without you.

Like some dream’s illusion — everything turned rosy,
And again I find myself writing these same verses,
I wrote hundreds of poems, dedicating them to you,
But to be fully honest — I never managed to be.

[Chorus]
We drown in an endless war where mercy’s gone,
Where every look’s a blow, and every move’s a verdict.
We tear ourselves apart, but then we come back on,
Like a forbidden rite that never brings us peace.

We lost our calm, there’s no more faith between us,
We burn the bridges, scorch a heart out of time.
And if it’s all a lie — then why do we carry on?
We call it love — this thing that slowly kills.

[Final]
Now I’ve become your shadow, the face of forgotten past,
Hundreds of lived days — only the good ones are erased.
I wanted to fix it all, but you took away the chance,
You ran away with tears — and I was left abandoned.

[Final Chorus]
Value the moments that burned us to the bone,
Time is a fragile gift — it can’t be brought back.
We’ve held a ghost in our fists for far too long,
But life moves on, and you must let go.

Let the pain leave, leaving light in your soul,
For every road leads back to a quiet start.
We part ways to carry on and live anew,
And in letting each other go — we learn to love.
We learn to love.
