Illusion

Oo-oo...
We build a nation,
A place to belong.
We were hand,
Hand in glove.
We never had enough.
Somehow we failed ,
Somewhere derailed.
Oh, my heart broke down.
It will never be the same.
Never be the same.
This has been an illusion,
But how could I have known?
I'm writing down all my conclusions,
So I could let you go.
Oo-oo...
This is what we lost:
A future and a cause
Full of ideals,
fanned for belief,
Backbone to the spirit.
Still I can't believe it.
This is called a disillusion,
But how could I have known?
Writing down all my conclusions.
It's time to let you go.
This has been an illusion
Of all we ever had.
I'm writing down all my conclusions,
So I will not forget.
Oo-oo...
