Am 01:00 - Charm and Illusion

What we like is what we want
Always chasing what we don't
We think it's greener on the other side
But it's just a trick of our minds

We're mesmerized by what we see
But the truth's not always as it seems
We're blinded by the glitter and gold
But underneath it's all so cold

Charm and illusion, we're caught in the game
Looking for something that'll make us feel the same
But what we don't have
Well, it's just a perception

In this world of make-believe and deception
What we like is what we want
Always chasing what we don't
We think it's greener on the other side

But it's just a trick of our minds
We're mesmerized by what we see
But the truth's not always as it seems
We're blinded by the glitter and gold

But underneath it's all so cold
Charm and illusion, we're caught in the game
Looking for something to make this feel the same
But what we don't have

Well, it's just a perception
In this world of make-believe and deception
Craving attention
We're all just puppets on a string

Lost in a world of longing
It's a dangerous fling
Living life through filters never seen
Reality we're chasing

Dreams that aren't just a fallacy
Caught up in the glitz and the glam
It's a show, but behind the scenes
The truth starts to glow

Underneath that polished surface
It's all a facade
We're dancing on a tightrope
Walking a fine line, oh God

Oh God
Charm and illusion, we're caught in the game
Looking for something to make this feel the same
But what we don't have

Well, it's just a perception
In this world of make-believe and deception
Craving attention
We're all just puppets on a string

Lost in a world of longing
It's a dangerous fling
Living life through filters never seen
Reality we're chasing

Dreams that that are just a fallacy
Caught up in the glitz and the glam
It's a show, but behind the scenes
The truth starts to glow

Underneath that polished surface
It's all a facade
We're dancing on a tightrope
Walking a fine line, oh God

God, God
Caught up in the lights and the fame
It's a spectacle we can't tame
But behind the scenes

A different story
The truth starts to shine
In all its glory
Underneath that shiny veneer

It's all smoke and mirrors, my dear
Charm and illusion
We're caught in the game
Looking for something to make us feel the same

But what we don't have
Well, it's just a perception
In this world of make-believe and deception
Craving attention

We're all just puppets on a string
Lost in a world of longing
It's a dangerous fling
Living life through filters never seen

Reality we're chasing
Craving attention
We're all just puppets on a string
Lost in a world of longing

It's a dangerous fling
Living life through filters never seen
Reality we're chasing
Dreams that are just a fallacy

Charm and illusion
We're caught in the game
Looking for something that'll make us feel the same
But what we don't have

Well, it's just a perception
In this world of make-believe and deception
Craving attention
Craving attention
