[Verse 1]
Magicians disguise their market as an altar
Fireworks are sold as sacred rite
Mystified, obscured, and named "eternal flame"
Their shimmering ephemera

[Verse 2]
Taken in by elliptical promises
Tickling your pride, they'll tease you in the dark
Now, will you dare, dare to pretend
To understand their riddles?

[Chorus]
Dissolving into laughter
Their babbled incoherence
So hallowed, so hollow
A tome of illusion

[Verse 3]
The only vision you havе gained
You see the mask of the jеster's grin
But now you're passing out the body and the blood
A scroll of many colors

[Chorus]
Whispered secret words
Your babbled incoherence
So hallowed, so hollow
Stone the congregation
Tome of illusion, hey
[Outro]
Tome of illusion
