Smoke & Mirrors

I remember the first time
I saw sadness in your eyes
You had me believing that
There were no lies
But now all these tears are smoke and mirrors
I was a goddamn fool for all these years
I gave everything I had for you
Like we both said we'd do

Trust is a luxury these days
Yet I placed mine all in your hands
How'd I never see this coming?
You're just so good at hiding the ugly truth with a veil
And the way that you tell your lies like tall tales
How did we get here, what can I do?

And now all these tears are smoke and mirrors
I was a goddamn fool for all these years
I gave everything I had for you
Like we both said we'd do

I'm doing all of this for me now
I'll look past your ghost somehow
And yeah, I meant it when I said that I'm not backing down
Even when I'm watching our innocence drown
