Lyrics Mayday Parade – Everything’s An Illusion

I try to sleep, but my eyes are open
I can’t think ’cause my heart is broken
There’s a bottle lying next to me
I’ve done a few drinks just to take the pain away

I wanna say all the things I need to say
I won’t lie, I’ll just tell them honestly
If God can take a friend away from me
Then I can say all I want and he won’t do anything

My tongue is weak
And every time I try to speak
I can say nothing at all

Sleep well, my friend
There will be another moment we’ll meet again
Just let it go
Sleep well, goodnight
You’re something to remember
I wish that you were here by my side

I spend hours tryna make it through the day
I don’t know if I’ll ever be the same
It’s hard enough when you’re all alone
In the city that you love, now Atlanta’s just a burial ground

My tongue is weak
And every time I try to speak
I can say nothing
Nothing at all

It’s hard to think
When losing someone
Only makes you wanna scream
And now that you’re gone

Sleep well, my friend

Rest in pieces
I can’t believe this
A mother shouldn’t witness
Her son die at twenty-four

Please take notice
These words are hopeless
It’s ripping me apart
And I can’t take it anymore

I will hold my tongue for the rest of my life
I can’t keep this up anymore

Sleep well, my friend
There will be another moment we’ll meet again
Just let it go
Sleep well, goodnight
You’re something to remember
I wish that you were here by my side

By my side
By my side
By my side

Sleep well, goodnight
You’re something I’ll remember
I wish that you were here by my side
