Smoke And Mirrors

Quiet as I watch you falling
You become the prey again
I can see
Your skin is crawling
Lipstick cases and sin
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
You're drowning
Same old song and dance
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
My darling
Never stood a chance.

Lost in love
You are
Out of touch
So far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
Always chasing scars
Never gets you far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors.

I hear it in her voice
She's stalling
You were just another man
Your claims of love are falling
Now it's clear
You can't win
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
Heart's pounding
Praying for romance
Wake up
Wake up
Wake up
It's sounding
Time to try again.

Lost in love
You are
Out of touch
So far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
Always chasing scars
Never gets you far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
I'd rather be alone
Than put you on the throne
And lose my faith
In smoke and mirrors.

Black painted eyes
Cover the lies
It's time you
Threw away your cruel disguise.

Lost in love
You are
Out of touch
So far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
Always chasing scars
Never gets you far
An illusion
It's all just smoke an mirrors
I'd rather be alone
Than put you on the throne
And lose my faith
In smoke and mirrors.
