Am I living or surviving
They tell me to wish upon a star
City lights cast a shadow
That shine when I look in your eyes
Growing lies you can't undo (Ooh)
Seeing the damage it can bring
Don't want you to feel alone whoa (Whoa)
Try to see it through my eyes
Smoke and mirrors
Paint a sky so blue
You were someone I thought I knew
You try so hard to hide from the truth
Smoke and mirrors
But the pain won't end soon (Whoa oh oh)
This game is never ending
Stop trying to fit in and be approved
Take chances and you'll see
You're stronger than you think
Growing lies you can't undo (Ooh)
Seeing the damage it can bring
Don't want you to feel alone whoa (Whoa)
Try to see it through my eyes
Smoke and mirrors
Paint the sky so blue
You were someone I thought I knew
You try so hard to hide from the truth
Smoke and mirrors
But the pain won't end soon (Whoa oh oh)
Soon (Whoa oh oh)
Staring in your weary eyes
Do you hear me now
You say you're just waiting
For a moment that never comes
So now you're paralyzed paralyzed
Addicted to the poison
Paralyzed paralyzed
Hate the feeling of your own skin
And its been running through your veins (Whoa oh oh)
Smoke and mirrors
Paint the sky so blue
You were someone I thought I knew
You try so hard to hide from the truth
Smoke and mirrors
But the pain won't end soon
(The pain won't end soon)
Soon (Whoa oh oh)
