Alesti — Smoke & Mirrors

Alesti — Smoke & Mirrors — lyrics

Why so condescending
I’m done pretending
It’s all fake
Might have always been
Your lies sting and i’m descending
I can’t keep bending
Or i’ll break
Crumble from within

Illuminate this dark place where i find myself
Before it’s too late
It’s nearly too late
You’re fading to obscurity
Why do i keep on clinging to these memories of you and me

It’s smoke and mirrors but i can’t leave
I keep on giving but you deceive
A fleeting illusion that keeps on evading me
Why do i believe in what i cannot see
I guess it’s all for nothing
I guess it’s all for nothing

Plеase hate me causе this apathy is killing me (killing me)
Please hurt me cause at least it’s gonna make me feel (make me feel)
Right now i can’t tell the hardest part
Letting go or let it consume my heart (consume my heart)

Please fight me cause this apathy is ending me (ending me)

Please break me cause at least i could begin to heal (begin to heal)
Cause i cannot tell the hardest part
You could have let me know right from the start
You could have let me know right from the start

It’s smoke and mirrors but i can’t leave
I keep on giving but you deceive
A fleeting illusion that keeps on evading me
Why do i believe in what i cannot see
I guess it’s all for nothing
I guess it’s all for nothing

You keep running away, running away, from this war
You should mean nothing to me, nothing to me, anymore
I feel i’m rotting away, rotting away, to the core
But you’ve got nothing to say, why do i stay, closing doors

Please hate me cause this apathy is killing me
Please hurt me cause at least it’s gonna make me feel
Please leave cause it’s the only way that i can heal

It’s smoke and mirrors but i can’t leave
I keep on giving but you deceive
A fleeting illusion that keeps on evading me
Why do i believe in what i cannot see
I guess it’s all for nothing
I guess it’s all for nothing
I guess it’s all for nothing
I guess it’s all for nothing
