the moon illusion - 6:53 am كلمات الأغنية

[verse 1]
a young man on a bus starting off his day
writing something he knows won’t get noticed anyway
he laments how his life is such a bore
he works as a humble clerk in a new york local corner store
he’s detached from his job as he toils away
staring at the happy people walking by as he’s adjusting the display
but on the bus, he’s free to write how he feels
and he feels found when he gets lost in the unreal

[chorus 1]
he writes about soldiers
fighting dragons off their castle wall
he pretends that he’s part of thе army
and has some use after all
hе writes about nomads
unjustly taken from their home
he imagines walking with them through the desert
and how he is not alone
(alone)
alone
(alone)
but when reality sets in
he finds he’s always been
so terribly alone
(alone)
alone
(alone)
[verse 2]
he has imagination, but he lacks self esteem
denying himself all of the chances at his dream
he works on his magnum opus throughout the fall
but he never shares it, why would anybody want to hear it all?
his time on the bus always goes so fast
as he writes and writes to try and bury away his past
he only puts pen to the paper for himself
maybe that’s why he never shares with someone else

[chorus 2]
when he writes about fathers
crying as they found they’ve lost their sons
he wonders if his old man would’ve missed him
if he was one of the unlucky ones
he writes about people
happy, smiling as they pass him by
he imagines looking at himself in the mirror
and somehow managing not to cry
(to cry)
to cry
(to cry)
but when all is said and done
he just wants to run away
from his life that went awry
(awry)
awry
(awry)
awry
[chorus 3]
he writes about lovers
crying as they try to make amends
he relates to the terrible pain of knowing
that it’s over before it ends
he writes about poor souls
trying hard to make their mothers proud
but all that he remembers of her is her screaming
“shut up! don’t be so loud”
just go away where no one can hear you
don’t let anyone come near you
don’t let anyone come close
