Lyrics
The Lord of Illusion
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't look back, don't turn back
Don't wait for commission from anyone
Don't say a word, don't expect anything
Silence gives consent
Cover your tearful eyes with a veil
Let your pain be torturing
Cover yourself with a back-sword
Like a slave in chains
You can't show something forever
Life can't always be good
You make yourself be called to dance
The music of the shadows is playing
Storm clouds are gathering, the sword is sharp
Your magic is about to end
The pain is awful, but has an end
You see, appearance kills, you're the only one to know it
Eternal peace is waiting for you And if you must, you'll get out
There is silence, you're examining your bleeding wounds
Perhaps it's another world that gives you another chance
People are mourning but you know that you're not done for
You take off your veil and watch them mourning you
You are the Lord of Illusion, you know it well
Prepare for the new show and enjoy yourself
