Opiate for the Masses - Illusions lyrics

{verse 1} I give a large piece of all i have For someone to tell me who i am A small price to pay For an illusion today But when i stand my ground You just push me away I keep my mouth shut 'cause you keep me fed I hide the thoughts inside my head A small price to pay For an illusion today But when i stand my ground You just push me away {chorus} In the cold line of confusion Where my life becomes illusion It never hurts me Never heals me As i wait for resolution In the cold line of confusion Where my life becomes illusion It never hurts me Never heals me As i wait for resolution {post-chorus} Like the beat-beat-beat of the tom-tom When the jungle shadows fall Like the tick-tick-tock of a stately clock As it stands against the wall {verse 2} I had no regrets for faith in you 'til the day you would not see me through A small price to pay For what was yesterday 'cause when i stood my ground You just pushed me away {chorus} In the cold line of confusion Where my life becomes illusion It never hurts me Never heals me As i wait for resolution In the cold line of confusion Where my life becomes illusion It never hurts me Never heals me As i wait for resolution {bridge} Aah, aah-aah, aah,-aah-aah-aah-aah {chorus} In the cold line of confusion Where my life becomes illusion It never hurts me Never heals me As i wait for resolution As i wait for resolution As i wait for resolution As i wait for resolution As i wait for resolution {refrain} (well, you tell them what you want, just don't tell them the truth)(well, you tell them what you want, just don't tell them the truth) (well, you tell them what you want, just don't tell them the truth)(well, you tell them what you want, just don't tell them the truth) {chorus} In the cold line of confusion Where my life becomes illusion It never hurts me Never heals me As i wait for resolution In the cold line of confusion Where my life becomes illusion It never hurts me Never heals me As i wait for resolution {outro} Like the beat-beat-beat of the tom-tom When the jungle shadows fall Like the tick-tick-tock of a stately clock As it stands against the wall
