Illusions Of Bliss
written by: Sarah McLachlan and Pierre Marchand
Lyrics
What ever happened to resolve?
For though I thought that I was strong, that I could carry on
Awash in the illusion of this bliss
Here I go again…back into the flame
Like a moth so willing to be burned
A little touch a little taste the pheromones embrace
And I get weak with every breathe I take
‘Cause it’s you who released me
It’s you who gave me fire
Oh and now it’s impossible to grow
Without breaking stride…I get so high
Take me out beyond the incline
Make it past the former fault line
For today I let the moment win
Here I go again…saying things I shouldn’t say
Just so I can hear them back from you
Oh I know I shouldn’t stay I should be on my way
Back to a place I know is real
But the lines are getting blurred
My conscience wont be heard
Awash in the illusion of this bliss
And it’s you who released me
It’s you who gave me fire
Oh and now it’s impossible to grow
Without breaking stride…I get so high
Take me out beyond the incline
Make it past the former fault line
For today I let the moment win…
