"Smoke And Mirrors" lyrics - BLACK VEIL BRIDES

Quiet as I watch you falling
You become the prey again
I can see your skin is crawling
Lipstick cases and sins

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

[Chorus:]
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

[Chorus:]
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

[Bridge:]
Black painted eyes, cover the lies
It's time you, threw away your cruel disguise

[Jake Pitts guitar solo]

[Chorus:]
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
