Delusional

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Stood in your shadow, thought your glare was all I'd see Blinded by your boasting, couldn't find my own decree Built you up a pedestal, a god upon a stage Now the cracks are showing, time to turn a different page [Pre-Chorus] Hear the whispers growing, truth is starting to unwind You're not the masterpiece you paint, your arrogance unkind The world's a tapestry of lives, all woven and entwined Your thread's just one amongst the rest, not the one that holds the line [Chorus] So step down from your platform, the spotlight's fading fast The audience is restless, the illusion couldn't last You're not the center of the story, the hero in the fight Just a character, with flaws and fears, existing in the light [Verse 2] Used to think your silence held the power to control Now I see it's just a void, a hollow, empty hole Your words were empty promises, your actions spoke the lie The emperor has no clothes, your reign is passing by [Pre-Chorus] Hear the whispers growing, truth is starting to unwind You're not the masterpiece you paint, your arrogance unkind The world's a tapestry of lives, all woven and entwined Your thread's just one amongst the rest, not the one that holds the line [Chorus] So step down from your platform, the spotlight's fading fast The audience is restless, the illusion couldn't last You're not the center of the story, the hero in the fight Just a character, with flaws and fears, existing in the light [Bridge] Don't be deceived by the echo in your own applause There's a symphony out there, a world beyond your cause Find your own melody, a rhythm that rings true The world will hear your music, when it comes from you [Chorus] So step down from your platform, the spotlight's fading fast The audience is restless, the illusion couldn't last You're not the center of the story, the hero in the fight Just a character, with flaws and fears, existing in the light [Outro] The world keeps turning, with or without your show There's so much more to discover, let your true colors grow
