Smoke and Mirrors

[Verse #1:] I’ve reached for dreams into a child’s heart, It’s innocence. It feels as I am the last one, That cannot feel. Too much I’ve given away, I let myself bleed. I’ve been picturing that day That all begun. Now I see through a mirror, darkly! [Bridge #1:] Help me, help me, get it out! Get it, take it out of sight!! [Chorus #1:] I’ll step into your dreams, I’ll find out where you’ve been. I’ll make you wish you were Already dead. I’ll be the one that scares, The one that doesn’t end! I’ll climb deep down inside And make you cry! [Verse #2:] Try to look straight into my eyes. Does your reflection lie? A replica of a person you once were, just before we met. Do you feel that thing inside, That runs through your head? Were the thoughts you once had, Not yours to have? Now I see through a mirror, darkly! [Chorus #2:] I’ll step into your dreams, I’ll find out where you’ve been. I’ll make you wish you were Already dead. I’ll be the one that scares, The one that doesn’t end! I’ll climb deep down inside And make you cry! Now I see through a mirror, darkly! [Chorus #3:] I’ll step into your dreams, I’ll find out where you’ve been. I’ll make you wish you were Already dead. I’ll be the one that scares, The one that doesn’t end! I’ll climb deep down inside And make you cry!

[Verse #1:] I am a liar in a distant empty place. Nowhere to hide, in all this vacant space. I am a cheat, a bastard and a king of fools. I must be the only one who knows the truth. [Bridge #1:] Tell me your secrets, I’ll tell you mine. Make me believe that you see through the lies. Give me the strength to open my eyes! [Chorus #1:] If I was the one… If I was the one who knows. The future I could foresee; I would be free! [Verse #2:] I may be here; at least my body is. But (my) heart I left behind these walls! You haven't built a cage so strong To hold my will imprisoned! [Chorus #2:] If I was the one… If I was the one who knows. My eyes would see beneath; I would believe! [Bridge #3:] I'm not a saint … I know. I've paid for my sins so many times before! What lies beneath but is above? [Chorus #3:] If I was the one… If I was the one who knows. The future I could foresee; I would be free! My eyes would see beneath, I could believe!

[Verse #1:] Not a day like any other, they Tried to warn me, make me walk away. Said I was lost, I was going astray. Throwing vain, empty words my way. This road is mine to take, I may shiver but I will never break. [Bridge #1:] There’s something else in store. To dream within a dream, I'm never giving in. [Chorus #1:] Shadow's holding me. Keeping company As I stand on The edge of a ledge I am going down, Release my thorns and crown. To meet you underground In madness that remains. [Verse #2:] Not a day like any other day. Quietly left with nothing to say At the edge you can hear no noise, The silence is louder than your voice. Only this and nothing more This moment I have been waiting for. [Bridge #2:] There’s someone down, I see. Believe me dear I know, You're waiting there for me. [Chorus #2:] Shadow's holding me. Keeping company As I stand on The edge of a ledge I am going down, Release my thorns and crown. To meet you underground In madness that remains. [Chorus #3:] Shadow follows me. My last company As I leap from the edge I am free. I’m falling down, Free from fear and doubt. To meet you underground In madness that remains. Only madness now remains.

[Intro:] In front of your eyes, Hidden right in front of your eyes. (The) beauty of a rose So uniquely disguised. [Verse #1:] Only candlelight And scattered voices in the night. Always from the back of mind, Looking for someone to find … you! [Bridge #1:] Release you from that place, restore your grace. But the one who tamed your heart has never left your side. [Verse #2:] Eyes are blind, the essence is not theirs to find. You've made her your own, The rose is now one of a kind. [Bridge #2:] Take another breath… The one who tamed your heart is never out of sight. [Chorus #1:] Look all the stars are smiling, You know that there's, someone there, that’s watching over you. When every soul is leaving, Remember now, you’re not alone. I’m staying here with you. [Bridge #3:] Take another breath, live another day. The one who tamed your heart is never out of sight. [Chorus #2:] Look all the stars are smiling, You know that there's, someone there, that’s watching over you. When every soul is leaving, Remember now, you’re not alone. I’m staying here with you. [Chorus #3 (Modulation):] Staying here with you ... I’m staying here with you. Staying here with you ... I’m staying here with you.

[Verse #1:] I look at pictures of a world that was My memories fading on this cold, lonely day No gleam of light just darkness all around I’m hurt and broken, trying to ... to escape ... from this lie! [Verse #2:] Now I dream of a better world, but I feel I dream of dreams When I’m awake I sit back and see the world staring back at me I don't want to laugh and cry, don't like to question why And the shards of the mirror reflect a phantom with no respect. [Chorus #1:] This is my only plea: “To leave me on my own; to fade away from all I see” To shatter in debris. [Verse #3:] Wild thoughts both dark and deep, my madness I will keep Night after night I will set you free as long as you believe in me. [Bridge#3:] Mirror, Mirror on the wall Will I fall and burn tonight? [Chorus #2:] This is my only plea: “To leave me on my own; to fade away from all I see” To shatter in debris. [Verse #4 (Interlude Verse):] A world of destruction A world of war and hate A world that kills us all And makes us want to die! [Chorus #3/1:] This is my only plea: “To leave me on my own; to fade away from all I see” To shatter in debris. [Chorus #3/2 (Modulation):] This is my plea... This is my plea...
