Smoke and Mirrors
On a plane around the world
To a place that isn't home
Wrack and ruin place he'd heard
Unlike any he had known
Young September went all wrong
It began 9:42
Thirteen hours until the dawn
When the gates were broken into
I saw fire rain down
On the other side of town
This is our war now
This is battleground
Heard the leader man say
Stand down, hold, and stay
They didn't listen though
Our brothers' only hope
Smoke and mirrors
I see you through the smoke and mirrors
Two were lost in the firestorm
Two fell in the fight
There wasn't time to hope or mourn yet
As they fought to hold the line
For each other and for good
For the lives of those below
Facing odds they understood
Six watchmen on the night road
I saw fire rain down
On the other side of town
This is our war now
This is battleground
Heard the leader man say
Stand down, hold, and stay
They didn't listen though
Our brothers' only hope
Smoke and mirrors
I see you through the smoke and mirrors
They dropped him from the wall
But I'll never let him fall
Long live the brave
Long live the brave
On both sides of the grave
I saw fire rain down
On the other side of town
This is our war now
This is battleground
Heard the leader man say
Stand down, hold, and stay
Didn't listen though
Our brothers' only hope
Smoke and mirrors
I see you through the smoke and mirrors
Smoke and mirrors
I see you through the smoke and mirrors
I see you through the smoke and mirrors
Smoke and mirrors
To a place that isn't home
Wrack and ruin place he'd heard
Unlike any he had known
Young September went all wrong
It began 9:42
Thirteen hours until the dawn
When the gates were broken into
I saw fire rain down
On the other side of town
This is our war now
This is battleground
Heard the leader man say
Stand down, hold, and stay
They didn't listen though
Our brothers' only hope
Smoke and mirrors
I see you through the smoke and mirrors
Two were lost in the firestorm
Two fell in the fight
There wasn't time to hope or mourn yet
As they fought to hold the line
For each other and for good
For the lives of those below
Facing odds they understood
Six watchmen on the night road
I saw fire rain down
On the other side of town
This is our war now
This is battleground
Heard the leader man say
Stand down, hold, and stay
They didn't listen though
Our brothers' only hope
Smoke and mirrors
I see you through the smoke and mirrors
They dropped him from the wall
But I'll never let him fall
Long live the brave
Long live the brave
On both sides of the grave
I saw fire rain down
On the other side of town
This is our war now
This is battleground
Heard the leader man say
Stand down, hold, and stay
Didn't listen though
Our brothers' only hope
Smoke and mirrors
I see you through the smoke and mirrors
Smoke and mirrors
I see you through the smoke and mirrors
I see you through the smoke and mirrors
Smoke and mirrors
