the illusion of the illusion of reality

[yougene]

Instilled within your decieving eyes lies a soul

Brought out by suffering, enslaved by desire

Nothing would of satisfied me more then to free this dieing entity

I took your suffering upon me and made it my own, hoping somehow it might ease it for you

Affect you it did bringing out the soul for moments, making me believe you had been freed

bringing me closer and closer to the soul i had saved

it wasn't saved, it was the shackled sufferer trying to hold on to her last bits of freedom

as the bars slowly closed around her they captured me too

my satisfaction was a product of desire, the very shackles that hold you

It was all an illusion, mind games the ego plays

Fire can't fight fire

Cool. Very... Buddhist-sounding to me, save for the whole soul thing. Regardless, I like the whole `the illusion of the illusion of' idea; the idea of thinking you've escaped the illusion but that escape only being an illusion.
