Mirage - Griffin House

You can travel down your roads of fantasy and wonder

And let each and every beauty pillage, rape and plunder

The pure and golden treasure buried underneath your breast

Is covered in the muck that used indulgences detest

She longs to see it shine

She longs for you come down

From where you sit so high on your head a crystal crown

She’s a mirage

She’s and idol

She’s not real

Remove her from your mind and you will see

She’s a mirage

She’s a liar

She won’t heal you

She will try to come between you and me

You can spend your strength on women

On those who ruin kingdoms

The unfaithful will be torn from the land

For the trouble that they bring them

Her house leads down to death

Her charm’s an evil force

And the ties that bind the flesh

Will sever in divorce

She’s a mirage

She’s and idol

She’s not real

Remove her from your mind and you will see

She’s a mirage

She’s a liar

She won’t heal you

She will try to come between you and me

Take her down from your pedestal

She’s no use anymore

You will recognize the face of death

It fooled you once before

She will find herself disgusted as she’s lying on the floor

Look how vanity has led you where the road turns into dark despair

I hope I never see you there

Forgive me darlin' being unaware

You’re no mirage

You are nothing of the kind

You are noble you are wise and you are pure

A good woman is the hardest thing to find

If there’s anything I know

Of this I’m sure
