Anthony Green
Illusion & Control
[Verse 1]
Are you settling?
The faces, the shadows
They're fading away
Wasting it all
Wasting it all
Without any direction
And I can't settle down
Without losing something else

[Pre-Chorus]
Who let?
We're exiled in a foreign land
Who let?
Nothing's ever done

[Chorus 1]
Dare I place it all inside of something I can't reach
When I know that I can make it on my own
We could never know

[Verse 2]
Is it close enough?
Tracing the outline
It's fading away
Wasting it all
Wasting it all
Without any direction
And I need something more
Could you make it feel the same?
[Pre-Chorus]
Who let?
We existed in a different place
Who let?
Nothing's ever done

[Chorus 2]
Dare I place it all inside of something I can't reach?
When I know that I can make it on my own
We could never know

[Bridge]
(Reversed: I can't settle down without using someone else)
We will hold all the opposition's gold
Made it past all the conflicts of our past
I can't settle down
Without using someone else

I've been counting the seconds
After the handshake
Under the stairwell
It's hard to bankrupt
You made a promise
I looked away
I'll never forget that
You can't create a portrait
Out of a shadow
Out of an idea
You never had
You never wanted
You never could
I'll never forget that
