Smoke & Mirrors Lyrics

Sixteen, young and in love

Just a couple of thugs,

So won't you be

My cutthroat princess

Trust me

I'm just one of a kind

An image up in your mind

So cut the jealousy

Your favorite felony

Maybe you just think you're a saint

Without the S, you're an ain't

A cute killer

But I just don't think you're special

Sick to death with love

It's a plague

It's like my heart's in a cage

A cute pessimist

But that don't make me special

Tell me I'm a line, are we fine?

I need to know if you're mine

And here we go again

Another argument

Say what you want me to say

I never cared anyway

And if I'm dead

it only makes it better

Die

If you want me to die

Then look me straight in the eyes

I'm waiting here

And I'm not so patient

Don't you miss a beat

Cause you're just

A couple feet away

And you're about to

Say what I thought you would say

You never cared anyway

And if I'm dead

It only makes it better

Die

If you want me to die

Then look me straight in the eyes

I'm waiting here

And I'm not so patient

Now I'm falling

Heaven's calling

Now I'm falling, now I'm falling

Sixteen, young and naive

You had your reasons to leave

Don't leave me, believe me

Pardon me for asking

But I need to know

You need me

Even if the answers

Aren't coming out so easy

Pardon me for thinking

That I thought

I might have loved you

Really it's depressing,

Cause there's nothing

That we could do

I don't understand

If you wanna hold my hand

We could come up with a plan

And it's alright

I don't understand

If you really wanna go

Then I think that you should know

That it's alright

I don't understand

If you wanna hold my hand

We could come up with a plan

And it's alright

Now I'm falling

Heaven's calling

Now I'm falling

Now I'm falling

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Down, down, down, down

Stuck beneath the memories

Falling like an avalanche

This could kill me, you so kill me

Stuck beneath the memories

falling like an avalanche

This could kill me, you so kill me

Now, don't you miss a beat

Cause you're just a couple feet

Away and you're about to
