Quiet as I watch you falling 
You [bad word] a pray 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 

Lost in another one 
And it's just 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 another one 
And it's just 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 
Then watch you outgrow 
And lose my faith in smoke and mirrors 

Black painted eyes 
Cover the lies 
It's time you threw away your [bad word] disguise 

Lost in another one 
Now it's just 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 
Then watch you outgrow 
And lose my faith in smoke and mirrors
