The Art of Self-Illusion



Downtown
Walking down the street
A cold rain falls from
Air conditioner equipment

I pretend they are raindrops
Touching my skin
Cleaning me
Of my sins

And while I'm developing
The Art of Self-Illusion
Life gets easier
I get self-confident

And while I'm developing
The Art of Self-Illusion
Happiness gets ready
You get closer to me

Downtown
Air conditioners cry
Sun behind the Sky
To find some happiness
I lie

The Art of Self-Illusion…
