I've been told bout living like a star
Hotel rich champagne and caviar
But no one ever showed me the reverse
And that really hurts
Baby it really hurts
Try to sell your body and your soul
It's the price you pay for rock and roll
No one understands it how you feel
For it's so unreal
Oh it's so unreal
Baby don't you cry for me
It's an illusion just an illusion
I thought i knew what life should be
It's an illusion
Just an illusion
Critics crucify your latest show
Another drink and then you lose control
Then on stage i feel a fire burn
There is no return i'm always on the run
I give it to you babe with all my heart
For it's not too late
No it's not too late
Baby don't you cry for me
It's an illusion just an illusion
I thought i knew what life should be
It's an illusion
Just an illusion
Baby don't you cry for me
It's an illusion just an illusion
I thought i knew what life should be
It's an illusion
Just an illusion
