Illusion

Song- Illusion by-VNV nation.

My dad played this song to me 2 years ago,
and told me that it reminds him of me.
Said that he doesnt want me to change,
no matter what happens, or what anybody
says, to always be who i am, never to change.

But yet he hates everything about me,
and dont try to say he doesnt, cause you
dont understand a thing.
He dissagrees with every dream,
every wish, every part of me.

He screams bitter things at me,
and says i dont mean anything.
That ill be nothing, but a bad dream.

He doesnt like the clothes i wear,
he doesnt like the way i part my hair,
he doesnt like the things i eat,
he doesnt like the way i speak.
he doesnt like the books i read,
he doesnt like the people i meet.
he doesnt like the things i see.
he doesnt want to hope for me.

All he wants is for me to be,
everything like him, and nothing like me.

He doesnt want me to believe,
or dream about a wish that i
want to be. he doesnt want me
to see that i can create my reality.

He believes that ill be
nothing, he belives that
ill fail at everything. Well
i dont believe him, i shall
desieve him.

He says that this song,
tells a story about me.
That i shouldnt hate
for the pain that i feel,
and the more that i try
the more that i die.

Deep down inside,
i cry, as he fills my
head and heart with lies.

This song tells a story,
about many things,
i may have a part that i play
but its a part that i choose.

He doesnt love me,
he only hates me,
because im not
the person, he wants
me to be.

So why must he lie and say this song
is my life?

Lyrics:
"I know it's hard to tell how mixed up you feel
Hoping what you need is behind every door
Each time you get hurt, I don't want you to change
Because everyone has hopes, you're human after all
The feeling sometimes, wishing you were someone else
Feeling as though you never belong
This feeling is not sadness, this feeling is not joy
I truly understand. Please, don't cry now

Please don't go, I want you to stay
I'm begging you please, please don't leave here
I don't want you to hate for all the hurt that you feel
The world is just illusion trying to change you

Being like you are
Well this is something else, who would comprehend?
But some that do, lay claim
Divine purpose blesses them
That's not what I believe, and it doesn't matter anyway
A part of your soul ties you to the next world
Or maybe to the last, but I'm still not sure
But what I do know, is to us the world is different
As we are to the world but I guess you would know that

Please don't go, I want you to stay
I'm begging you please, please don't leave here
I don't want you to hate for all the hurt that you feel
The world is just illusion trying to change you
Please don't go, I want you to stay
I'm begging you please, oh please don't leave here
I don't want you to change for all the hurt that you feel
This world is just illusion always trying to change you

Please don't go, I want you to stay
I'm begging you please, please don't leave here
I don't want you to hate for all the hurt that you feel
The world is just illusion trying to change you
Please don't go, I want you to stay
I'm begging you please, oh please don't leave here
I don't want you to change for all the hurt that you feel
This world is just illusion always trying to change you

But he is right about one thing, the world is just a illusion
always trying to change you.

Dad is just a illusion, who has failed.

Wow! I went and listened to

Wow! I went and listened to it... I'm sorry about your dad. I can sorta understand how it might feel. (But I'm NOT trying to say that I know what you're feeling!) MY little sister acts like she likes me, and then turns around, acting evil, and being really mean to me... Telling me that she hates me.
Nice write!
