lyrics

If you've lost your years
to smoke and mirrors
put me down
you're here now
if you shake me off
the knife this time
i'll leave this town

Oh oh time
is such a funny thing when you are young
when you're dumb
oh mistakes are more than lessons learned
when you grow up

And i could hide
you could look but you'd know you'd never find
me
and I could lie
i'd bite my tongue all the time

And i could tell the perfect story
you'd believe
every word
when i promise you
you'd want me to
and you'd believe
every word

Ill show you how the smoke and mirrors
will hide you, hold you under, there's
a way we spoke in early years
of how the waves could break and sunder
we'd walk through the center dry
smiling when the clouds would tremble
trying hard to break above
things our memories resemble

Lost in smoke so thick and black
lights shine past your shadow's back
you step its toes in spite of track
to you its all the same
to you its all the same
