Grand Illusion
by Styx Welcome to the grand illusion Come on in and see what's happenin' Pay the price get your tickets for the show The stage is set, the band starts playin' Suddenly your heart is pounding You're wishing secretly you were a star But don't be fooled by the radio The TV or the magazine They'll show you photographs Of how your life should be But they're just someone else's fantasies So if you think your life is complete confusion 'Cause you never win the game Just remember that it's a grand illusion And deep inside we're all the same We're all the same So if you think your life is complete confusion 'Cause your neighbor's got it made Just remember that it's a grand illusion Deep inside we're all the same America spells competition Join us in our blind ambition Get yourself a brand new motor car But someday soon we'll start to ponder What on earth is this spell we're under We made the grade and still we wonder Who the hell we are |

Fooling Yourself
by Styx You see the world thru your cynical eyes You're a troubled young man I can see You've got it all in the palm of your hand But your hand's wet with a sweat And you head needs a rest And you're fooling yourself If you don't believe it You're kidding yourself If you don't believe it Why must you be such an angry young man When your future looks quite bright to me And how can there be such a sinister plan That could hide such a lamb Such a caring young man And you're fooling yourself If you don't believe it You're killing yourself If you don't believe it Get up, get up, get back on your feet You're the one they can't beat And you know it Come on, come on let's see what you've got Just take your best shot and don't blow it, oh |

Superstars
by Styx You've read about me in the papers You've seen me on the movie screen You know everything about me I'm your late night fantasy But don't think I can't hear you calling From the shadow of the 14th row Cause I've had the same dreams you've had A few short years ago and that's why I know You and I We will climb so high Superstars Whoa whoa You and I And we'll just close our eyes And become our fantasy Superstars yes, yes, superstars Step right this way. Everyone's welcome, We want your dreams. The offer's simple, momentary immortality Cause I've seen them all you know I've seen them climb and I've seen them fall I've seen them come and I've seen them go And through it all there's only one thing that matters Love - And that's simply You and I Yes, You and I For we are superstars Lyrics and Music by: James Young, Dennis De Young, Tommy Shaw |

Come Sail Away
by Styx I'm sailing away set an open course for the virgin sea I've got to be free free to face the life that's ahead of me On board I'm the captain so climb aboard We'll search for tomorrow on every shore And I'll try oh Lord I'll try to carry on I look to the sea reflections in the waves spark my memory Some happy some sad I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had We live happily forever so the story goes But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold But we'll try best that we can to carry on A gathering of angels appeared above my head They sang to me this song of hope and this is what they said They said come sail away come sail away Come sail away with me Come sail away come sail away Come sail away with me I thought that they were angels but to my surprise They climbed aboard their starship and headed for the skies Singing come sail away come sail away Come sail away with me Come sail away come sail away Come sail away with me |

You were the apple of the public′s eye as you cut the ribbon at the local mall
A mirage for both you and us. How can this be real? We love your body in that photograph, your home state sure must be proud The queen of the United States, or have you lost your crown Well aren′t you Miss America Don′t you Miss America Won′t you Miss America Our love Well are you really who we think you are Or does your smile seem to wear you down Is the girl who you once were screaming to jump out And the dream that you must live - a disease for which there is no cure This roller coaster ride you′re on won′t stop to let you off Well aren′t you Miss America Don′t you Miss America Won′t you Miss America Our love Miss America, Miss America, Miss America Miss America, Miss America, Miss America Well aren′t you Miss America Don′t you Miss America Won′t you Miss America Our love Well it′s true just take a look - The cover sometimes makes the book And the judges, do they ever ask to read between your lines In your cage at the human zoo, they all stop to look at you Next year, what will you do when you have been forgotten Well aren′t you Miss America Don′t you Miss America Won′t you Miss America Our love |

Another year has passed me by
Still I look a myself and cry What kind of man have I become? All of the years I've spent in search of myself And I'm still in the dark 'Cause I can't seem to find the light alone Sometimes I feel like a man in the wildernes |

Once in a dream
Far beyond these castle walls Down near the bay Where the moonlit water falls I stood alone While the minstrel sang his song So afraid I′d lost my soul There in the fog his song kept calling me Leading me on with its haunting melody Deep in my heart a voice kept echoing I knew I′d soon be wandering Far beyond these castle walls Where the distant harbour meets the sky There the battle raged like hell And every dove had lost its will to fly Far beyond these castle walls Where I thought I heard Tiresias say Life is never what it seems And every man must meet his destiny |

Sail Away Superstars So if you think your life is complete confusion Cause your neighbors got it made Just remember, please, it's a grand illusion And deep inside we're all the same |
