Smoke & Mirrors

Standing on the front lines

Staring at the sun rise over the hill

Waiting for the kill

Sweet anticipation, never conversation

Tears in our eyes from holding too tight

Waiting till the demons come

Wait for us to see them run in our direction

Now they're staring at us through the trees

Got us falling to our knees to teach us a lesson

So tell me

Did you ever really love me?

Did you ever really want me?

Now that I see you clearer

I wonder, was I ever really happy?

Didn't get the chance to ask me

Now that I see you clearer

Was it just smoke and mirrors?

Was it just smoke and mirrors?

Holding onto tables, pulling out the staples

Keeping you close, now we're not afloat

Point me in the right direction, answer me one question

'Cause I could've sworn that I wasn't wrong

Waiting till the demons come

Wait for us to see them run in our direction

Staring at us through the trees

Got us falling to our knees to teach us a lesson (teach us a lesson)

So tell me

Did you ever really love me?

Did you ever really want me?

Now that I see you clearer

I wonder, was I ever really happy?

Didn't get the chance to ask me

Now that I see you clearer

Was it just smoke and mirrors?

Was it just smoke and mirrors?

Darling, I have been afraid

I could only call your name

Thank the heavens that you stayed

But if I'm telling you the truth

When I cut the tether loose

It was me, saving you

So tell me

Did you ever really love me?

Did you ever really want me?

Now that I see you clearer

I wonder, was I ever really happy?

Didn't get the chance to ask me

Now that I see you clearer

Was it just smoke and mirrors?

Was it just smoke and mirrors?

Was it just smoke and mirrors?
