The banquet ends, still I pretend – cling fierce to my delusion.
Friends move on when love has gone;
But I spend precious time;
Sifting through the leftovers, revisiting the crime.

Denial to recoverys a lonely, painful mending.
Trapped inside the vacuum of my stolen happy ending.
We know the sound of being found by make-believe escape.
Yet heed the call, and one and all, stay at the ball too late.

It seems to me to some degree that love is an illusion.
The banquet ends, still I pretend – cling fierce to my delusion.
Friends move on when love has gone;
But I spend precious time;
Sifting through the leftovers, revisiting the crime.

Denial to recoverys a lonely, painful mending.
Trapped inside the vacuum of my stolen happy ending.
We know the sound of being found by make-believe escape.
Yet heed the call, and one and all, stay at the ball too late.
