I shut my eyes, and all the world drops dead,
The fate that serves the thread of life.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
----------------------------------------------------------
I dreamed that you bewitched me into bed,
And sung me moon-struck, kissed me bane,
Yet, you still make me feel insane~
----------------------------------------------------------
Mind of imagination, is where you existed,
Forever deep, your still sick and twisted.
(I think I made you up inside my head.)
----------------------------------------------------------
The way I felt when I first met you,
Felt a lot like falling in love,
Even if in many ways, you were still in my head~
----------------------------------------------------------
Smooth as a whisper, it could weather any storm.
But time's cruel embrace, it fades away,
Leaving behind echoes of a love in disarray.
(I think I made you up inside my head~)
----------------------------------------------------------
Twisted words, Twisted minds,
God, you make me remind,
I shut my eyes, and all the world drops dead.
(I think I made you up inside my head~)
----------------------------------------------------------

This was powerful Congrats on earning Top Story! I might be projecting my own stuff onto this piece, but I got the sense that the speaker was talking about a person in whose personality they were deceived and believe that invented it themselves
