Delusional Paradise

Cross your heart and count to three
It's clear to see that what we really need
Is empathy
If there's a will then there's a way
But you've been hiding lately
Under pressure
Living in disguise
Trap yourself inside your dreams
Don't let reality come in between everything
Trust me, I know, I've been here too before
And if you can't move on I'm leaving you behind
I'm leaving you behind

Give me some room to grow
Let me have the time to show
Never the ones you expect
I guess you never know
Could you imagine the world
Without living in grey?
Open your eyes
A delusional paradise (paradise)

Try, wear me down but in return
I'll give you just what you deserve
Do you think your petty words are gonna make me hurt?
I've been doing fine and that's not your concern
'Cause respect is a virtue
And it's not one you've earned
The world seems to change
But you'll still stay the same
Like an old brush and paint
You're a color to fade
And that's fine if you're happy being
Stuck in your ways
With complacency, my enemy
I'm not here to stay
(Not here to stay)

Give me some room to grow
Let me have the time to show
Never the ones you expect
I guess you never know
Could you imagine the world
Without living in grey?
Open your eyes
A delusional paradise (paradise)

And I know you'll waste
Every last breath to state
What I'll never be
But I guess your
Acquaintance is poison
And one I don't need
One I don’t need
You won't make me fall to my knees (fall to my knees)
Take a good look 'cause it's the last that you'll see (last thing you'll see)
So you can
Stay the fuck away from me
You'll never get the best of me
We're not the same
I can't relate
I guess we're just a color to fade

Give me some room to grow
Let me have the time to show
Never the ones you expect
I guess you never know
Could you imagine the world
Without living in grey?
Open your eyes
Give me some room to grow
Let me have the time to show
Never the ones you expect
I guess you never know
Could you imagine the world
Without living in grey?
Open your eyes
A delusional paradise (paradise)
