Illusions

You can pretend if you wish. Believe it is true. What's it matter if nothing is real? Put up your barricade. Your mirage. Weave your lies and watch them grow. Tell the world it's true even when it's false. Make me trust in what you say then turn me away. I'll act the part I was given to play, but just try to see what's going on beneath the lie. I'll hide the secret of this burden and pretend it's all okay even though you'll never know the pain I hold. This world is only make believe so lets just take it as it is.. A wonderfully misplaced illusion.
