Smoke and Mirrors Lyrics

This is my word, this is my way
Show me a sign, sweep me away
This is my word heart breaker, gatekeeper
I'm feeling far away, I'm feeling right there
Deep in my heart, deep in my mind
Take me away, take me away
This is my word dream maker, life taker

All I believe, Is it a dream?
That comes crashing down on me?
All that I own
Is it just smoke and mirrors?
I want to believe
But all that I own
Is it just smoke and mirrors?

All that I've known, buildings of stone
Fall to the ground without a sound
This is my word heart breaker, gatekeeper
I'm feeling far away, I'm feeling right there
I'm starting to cave, I'm losing my flame
I wanted your truth, but I wanted the pain
Disappear dream maker, life taker

All I believe, Is it a dream?
That comes crashing down on me?
All that I own
Is it just smoke and mirrors?
I want to believe
But all that I own
Is it just smoke and mirrors?

I want to believe

All I believe, Is it a dream?
That comes crashing down on me?
All that I own
Is it just smoke and mirrors?
I want to believe
But all that I own
Is it just smoke and mirrors?

What is the Meaning of Smoke and Mirrors?

Delving into the world of uncertainty and introspection, this track explores the concept of reality versus illusion. The singer questions everything he believes in, wondering if it's just a figment of his imagination or something real that can shatter at any moment. The phrase "smoke and mirrors" is often used to describe deception or illusion, suggesting that the singer feels his life may not be as it seems. He yearns for truth and authenticity but is confronted with doubt and fear. This struggle between wanting to believe and doubting what one owns creates a powerful emotional conflict in the song. #RealityVsIllusion #SelfDoubt #YearningForTruth
