Hallucination

Give me life, oh sweet mother
I want to know how it is to live
I want to have a father, and a brother
And have nothing at all to give
So will you give me life?
Will you help me survive?
On this sweet hallucination that I live to bother?

Oh why am I here?
Why did I ever take birth?
Sweet mother, I cannot bear
Life is nothing but a herth
Of a dream, Of hallucination,
Of the misunderstandings, of an imation
Of a lie-betray filled nation
No longer is it, that sweet hallucination
Which I took birth in, where I did my cremation

Greet, Betray, Proceed, Dont stay
Power hungry freaks are ruling away
I will get my sweet dream back someday
I will get it back in my own way
But I just have to understand this world today
I want to have my sweet hallucination, my way

Oh, my mother, my sweet mother
I love the love bestowed by you
But mother, I hither,
Is this the same world? Is this really true?
The sweet hallucination that I dreamt of sometime
The existance of humans, the magic, the crime

Greet, Betray, Proceed, Dont stay
Power hungry freaks are ruling away
I will get my sweet dream back someday
I will get it back in my own way
But I just have to understand this world today
I want to have my sweet hallucination, my way

Oh help me survive, just help me do my part
Help me in my quest, my destination
Just help me keep together the breaking of worlds apart
Help me get back my sweet hallucination...
