Your touch is cold or is that just the way it seems 

The illusion is complete 

The lives we reach about are always easier 

The illusion is complete 

Come on into the rush of things 

Dangerous and true 

Secure we're in a trance 

The seduction is cruel 

Leave us to our own devices 

We'll hurt ourselves

The familiar things we do 

Left on our own and watch how our plans all fold 

The familiar things we do 

Come on into the rush of things 

Dangerous and true 

Secure we're in a trance 

The seduction is cruel 

You've got a lot to learn 

About the price of dreams 

I've got a lot to lose 

I've got everything

--who says the world is unkind?
