I am not an illusion

This is not illusion, I know what I've seen

you'll never know what you mean if you don't.

just look out your window. I'll be waiting

out in the clearing, I am no illusion

but you'll never get there if you don't.

get close and look me in the eye

and believe what my irises sing

this truth is no illusion

but you can never trust it if you don't.

scream like a boiling kettle

pour your agony into my mug

you'll never make anything out of this if you don't.

sing to me like a nightingale

on its descent from heaven

I'll fix your broken wings

but you'll never heal if you don't.
