Tryin' to keep control

Pressure's takin' its toll

Stuck in the middle zone

I just want you alone

My guessing game is strong

Way too real to be wrong

Caught up in your show

Yeah, at least now I know

It wasn't love, it wasn't love

It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)

Mistaken for love, it wasn't love

It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)

You were a perfect illusion

I don't need eyes to see

I felt you touchin' me

High like amphetamine

Maybe you're just a dream

That's what it means to crush

Now that I'm wakin' up

I still feel the blow

But at least now I know

It wasn't love, it wasn't love

It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)

Mistaken for love, it wasn't love

It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)

(Where are you?

Cause I can't see you)

It was a perfect illusion

(But I feel you watchin' me

Dilated, falling free

In a modern ecstasy)

(Where are you?

Cause I can't see you)

It was a perfect illusion

(But I feel you watchin' me

But I feel you watchin' me)

Illusion

(But I feel you watchin' me)

Mistaken for love

(Where were you

Cause I can't see

But I feel you watchin' me)

Mistaken for love

(Dilated, falling free

In a modern ecstasy)

Mistaken for love

(In a modern ecstasy

In a modern ecstasy)

I'm over the show

Yeah at least now I know

It wasn't love, it wasn't love

It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)

Mistaken for love, it wasn't love

It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)

Ohhhh

You were a perfect illusion

Ohhhh

It was a perfect illusion

It was a perfect illusion

Somewhere in all the confusion

It was a perfect illusion, (illusion) (illusion)

It was a perfect illusion

Somewhere in all the confusion

You were so perfect

You were a, you were a perfect illusion
