Smoke and Mirrors

 

Smoke and mirrors


Tick ticking clock as the sands sweep away

Everything I believed we could be today

Everything we've built, falls down all around me

The choking clouds of ash from what was once our flame

Lay awake at night in the echoes of the dream

I played for keeps, because I didn't know this was a game


Broken hearted you watched me stumble

Listened to confessions, but never took your blame

I knew better than to think you humble

But I never thought you'd play this game


I took you in from your house of broken dreams

Held you close when 

your world was empty
