Chairlift – No Such Thing As Illusion lyrics

[Chorus]
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing
There is no such thing as illusion

[Verse 1]
To walk around in circles
And now I have the story straight
I'm running down a mountain
Tears of gold running down my head
To wake up from a nightmare
To your warm, familiar face
I will love again, be as simple
As your hand wrapped around my waist

[Bridge]
After all I thought I wanted
Ripped in two, all on display
After all you might polish it
To new but walk away

[Interlude]
And after all the crying is all less
You won't come free
You know the status quo in nature
The strong eat the weak

[Bridge]
Tonight the expectations
Were lost along the way
After all I ever needed
Was your arm around my waist

[Chorus]
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing
There is no such thing as illusion

[Verse 2]
Don't tell me that it's fleeting
Don't tell me it's a honeymoon
Don't tell me that this feeling
Comes and goes, yeah, I know what they say
This ain't no new car leather
There's no returning if it breaks
It can be everlasting
Just don't go when I get the shakes

[Bridge]
After all I thought I wanted
Ripped in two, put on display
After all I ever needed
Was your arm around my waist

[Chorus]
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing as illusion
There is no such thing
There is no such thing as illusion
