Everything's An Illusion

(альбом: Mayday Parade - 2011)

I try to sleep, but my eyes are open
I can't think 'cause my heart is broken
There's a bottle lying next to me
I've done a few drinks just to take the pain away

I wanna say all the things I need to say
I won't lie, I'll just tell them honestly
If God can take a friend away from me
Then I can say all I want and he won't do anything

My tongue is weak
And every time I try to speak
I can say nothing at all

Sleep well, my friend
There will be another moment we'll meet again
Just let it go
Sleep well, goodnight
You're something to remember
I wish that you were here by my side

I spend hours tryna make it through the day
I don't know if I'll ever be the same
It's hard enough when you're all alone
In the city that you love, now Atlanta's just a burial ground

My tongue is weak
And every time I try to speak
I can say nothing
Nothing at all

It's hard to think
When losing someone
Only makes you wanna scream
And now that you're gone

Sleep well, my friend
There will be another moment we'll meet again
Just let it go
Sleep well, goodnight
You're something to remember
I wish that you were here by my side

Rest in pieces
I can't believe this
A mother shouldn't witness
Her son die at twenty-four

Please take notice
These words are hopeless
It's ripping me apart
And I can't take it anymore

I will hold my tongue for the rest of my life
I can't keep this up anymore

Sleep well, my friend
There will be another moment we'll meet again
Just let it go
Sleep well, goodnight
You're something to remember
I wish that you were here by my side

By my side
By my side
By my side

Sleep well, goodnight
You're something I'll remember
I wish that you were here by my side
