Just an Illusion

Just an illusion

I've been told 'bout living like a star
Hotel rich champagne and caviar
But no one ever showed me the reverse
And it really hurts
Baby it really hurts

They try to sell you body and your soul
It's the price you pay for rock and roll
And no one understands it, how you feel
For it's so unreal
Oh it's so unreal

Baby don't you cry for me
It's an illusion, just an illusion
I thought I knew what life should be
It's an illusion.. Just an illusion

When critics crucify your latest show
Another drink and then you loose control
But then on stage I feel a fire burn
There is no return
I'm always on the run
I give it to you babe with all my heart
For it's not too late, no it's not too late
