Illusory Light
I knew exactly
I knew exactly what this would feel like

I knew this day was coming
I knew it right from the start

I could see it in your eyes

but I just didn't care

I knew the days were numbered

but I fell anyway

I knew exactly

I knew exactly what you would be to me

A scar on the horizon
a perfect dim illusory light

And I held it in my hands

to protect it from the wind

But the more I held on

I knew I'd lose it again

You blew in like a breeze

and rolled out like a storm

I know you didn't think it'd do any harm

I knew exactly
I knew exactly what this would feel like

To hear the same voice t
hat said 'hello' say 'goodbye'
