"Mirages"

I'm on an island
And it's sinking
I don't know what
I was thinking
Trying to find home
In the great unknown
Leaving without reason
To be left alone
And I'm tied down
By the riptides
The deception
Of my bloodline
It's a current
Of shame
Take it all upon me
Just to let it out the same

Everyone you know and love
Is miles away from here
So why you chasing shadows
When you know they'll disappear
Mirages, mirages
Mirages, mirages

I'm on my last line
That's the feeling
Like nothing's latching on
And I'm reeling
Like there's no tomorrow
Though it's always in tow
A faint reminder in bold
That time doesn't slow
For the witness
Or the wilting
The rain falls
On the innocent and guilty

So if everyone you know and love
Is miles away from here
Why you shooting arrows
At a target that ain't clear
Mirages, mirages
Mirages, mirages

Mirages, mirages
Mirages, mirages
