Recent Illusion Lyrics

How hard can it be to
Have and to keep what everyone has?
Out walking the street
The beautiful meet
They're starting to laugh

I know too much
I've seen to much
I crave too much
I'm out of touch

My recent illusion
Blurred out my conclusion
There's no one for me
I can't do it right
I can't sleep at night
He's all that I see

But I want too much
Demand too much
I crave too much
I'm out of touch

I aim high, you aim low
Oh, ain't that just the way it goes?
I see sparks, you see none
Had I only quit while it was fun

But I seek too much
I try too much
Think I cry too much
I've lost my touch

I think I've lost my touch
But it was fun

Cover art for Recent Illusion lyrics by Marit Larsen

Wanting a relationship but nothing ever goes the way it should.

"I aim high, you aim low Oh, ain't that just the way it goes? I see sparks, you see none Had I only quit while it was fun"

She regrets not stopping the infatuation before she got hurt, but the way she's reflecting on it isn't bitter like most would be.
