[Intro]
Oh-oh
Oh-oh

[Verse 1]
Tryin' to get control
Pressure's takin' its toll
Stuck in the middle zone
I just want you alone
My guessing game is strong
Way too real to be wrong
Caught up in your show
Yeah, at least now I know

[Chorus]
It wasn't love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)
Mistaken for love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh
You were a perfect illusion

[Verse 2]
I don't need eyes to see
I felt you touchin' me
High like amphetamine
Maybe you're just a dream
That's what it means to crush
Now that I'm wakin' up
I still feel the blow
But at least now I know
[Chorus]
It wasn't love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)
Mistaken for love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)

[Bridge]
Where are you? 'Cause I can't see (It was a perfect illusion)
But I feel you watchin' me
Dilated, fallin' free
In a modern ecstasy
Where are you? 'Cause I can't see (It was a perfect illusion)
But I feel you watchin' me
But I feel you watchin' me (Illusion)
But I feel you watchin' me (Mistaken for love)
Where were you? 'Cause I can't see (Illusion)
But I feel you watchin' me (Mistaken for love)
Dilated, fallin' free
In a modern ecstasy (Mistaken for love)
In a modern ecstasy
In a modern ecstasy
I'm over the show
Yeah, at least now I know

[Chorus]
It wasn't love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)
Mistaken for love, it wasn't love
It was a perfect illusion (Perfect illusion)
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh
You were a perfect illusion
Oh-oh-oh
It was a perfect illusion

[Outro]
It was a perfect illusion
Somewhere in all the confusion
It was a perfect illusion, illusion
Illusion (Where were you? 'Cause I can't see it)
It was a perfect illusion (But I feel you watchin' me, baby)
Somewhere in all the confusion (Dilated, fallin' free)
You were so perfect (In a modern ecstasy)
You were a, you were a perfect illusion
