Lyrics Smoke and Mirrors - Pascale Picard

Smoke and Mirrors

I’ve grown tired of smoke and mirrors and mysteries
I’ll do the talking while you stare at your feet
It took years to find my own voice now I can’t stop it
Listen to me
How I felt alive by the warmth of your skin
I swallowed your lies cause you’ve got your reasons
But I cut myself in half and count the rings
This has gotta end
I know, I know these walls you’re building
But by now I’m sure they don’t keep you safe
They don’t keep you safe
You’ve had all the pieces to knock me off my game
But I am not as blind as you think I am
Through all the twists and turns, and the fooling around
You never let me win
I know, I know it’s not me you’re playing
But by now I’m sure I’ve got everything
Everything to lose
I’ve grown tired of smoke and mirrors and mysteries
Crying got the sad out but we ran out of tears
It took years to make a choice and I’m a coward to leave
You gotta forgive me
Please forgive me
I’m sure, I’m sure there’s love behind these walls
But by now I know you won’t let me in
You’ll never let me in
