Why is everybody running from the truth? Why does everybody always trust their muse? You’ve gotta take this, take that, gimme some more Pay this, pay that, what’s it all for? Why is everybody running from the truth? This grand illusion army runs my mind Who would I be without it stealing my light?

It’s a disease It’s a disease of torment to just be alone I’m longing to just be alone I’m longing to just be alone
