Another segment of the Time Trap suite. It's more like a suite of mini pieces of music.
Brilliant write and performances from Bob, George, Mark and Billy. Special thanks to Billy, who arranged and mixed this song wonderfully well.

Em
I live in a world of illusion
C
overcome by the powers that be
Em
not sure what's real or a delusion (VERSE)
C
can't trust what I think my eyes see...
Am Em
From the virus in this program
G Am
reality can change
Am G C
rewriting fragile software (BRIDGE)

The outlook is rather strange.....

Holographic alibis are always on your side
Do you believe? - until you open your eyes (CHORUS)
There are things in this world not easily seen
Dm F Dm C
Try to believe , try to recognize –
Dm D fig
it could be a lie...it could be a lie
Inside the construct , the universe designed
the perfect illusion need not be defined
As part of the construct, we must co-exist
never seeing never knowing
how the pieces fit...how the pieces fits

Em figure
Living with this daily confusion -
over run by technology
not sure if there's a conclusion (VERSE)
or if I'll ever be free
must be an issue with the hard drive
information erased
corrupted from the outside (2nd bridge)
it all seems to be a waste......
