Imploding the Mirage

[Verse 1]

I was a timid Rockwellian boy

She was tattooed and ready to deploy

Gave me reservation and the like

But she could be the dangerous type

But I threw caution 'cause something about that yin and the yang

Was pushing my boundaries out beyond my imagining

[Chorus]

While you were out there, chewing on fat for probable cause

I let go

While you were out there weighing odds

I was imploding the mirage

While you were out there looking like that

Struck my name from the camouflage

I wasn't lost in the collage

I was imploding the mirage

I was imploding the mirage

[Verse 2]

I had to do it, I had no other choice

You've got to listen to the inside voice

A bullet train will get you there fast

But it won't guarantee a long last

Sometimes it takes a little bit of courage and doubt

To push your boundaries out beyond your imagining

[Chorus]

While you were out there, chewing on fat for probable cause

I let go

While you were out there weighing odds

I was imploding the mirage

While you were out there looking like that

Struck my name from the camouflage

I wasn't lost in the collage

I was imploding the mirage

I was imploding the mirage

[Bridge]

I was spellbound by the show

The matchless power of the glow

I was bound by golden shackles, getting by

She tripped the breaker, blew the fuse

Doesn't need no pair of shoes

Her wings have come, and she's ready for the sky

[Chorus]

While you were out there, chewing on fat for probable cause

I let go

While you were out there weighing odds

I was imploding the mirage

While you were out there looking like that

I walked right out of the camouflage

I wasn't locked in no collage

I was imploding the mirage

I was imploding the mirage
