Karaoke Track: Precious Illusions by Alanis Morissette (Sunfly)

You&#39;ll rescue me right?

in the exact same way
they never did

I&#39;ll be happy right?

when your healing powers
kick in

You&#39;ll complete me right?

then my life can
finally begin

I&#39;ll be worthy right?

Only when you realize
the gem I am?

But this won&#39;t work now
the way it once did
and I won&#39;t keep it up
even though I would
love to

Once I know who I&#39;m not

then I know who I am

But I know I won&#39;t keep
on playing the victim
these precious illusions
in my head

Did not let me down
when I was defenceless
and parting with them
is like parting with
invisible best friends

This ring will help me yet

as will you knight in
shining armour

This pill will help me yet

as will these boys
gone through like water

But this won&#39;t work

as well as the way
it once did

Cuz I want to decide

between survival
and bliss

And I know who I&#39;m not

I still don&#39;t know
who I am

But I know I won&#39;t keep
on playing the victim
these precious illusions
in my head

Did not let me down
when I was a kid
and parting with them
is like parting with a
childhood best friend

I&#39;ve spent so long

firmly looking
outside me

I&#39;ve spent so much

time living
in survival... mode

This won&#39;t work now

the way it once did

Cuz I want to decide

between survival
and bliss

But I know I won&#39;t keep
on playing the victim
these precious illusions
in my head

Did not let me down
when I was defenceless
and parting with them
is like parting with a
childhood best friend
