Smoke and Mirrors - Handguns

«Smoke And Mirrors»

They say someday «things will change

And it will be perfectly okay.»

But the only thing that has changed

Is that I can see through the haze

Watch my friends

Fade to gray

These stale routines

Drain their lives away

Drain their lives away

Drain their lives away

And it’s killing me to believe

That you’re truly happy

With the choices you’ve made

The substances may dull the pain

But they will never wash them away

Overworkd

Underpaid

These stale routines

Drain their lives away

Drain their lives away

Drain their lives away

The seconds pass like hours

And these hours pass like days

What do you know about being afraid?

I woke up this morning at the end of my rope

Covered in vomit from head to toe

I can’t keep living this way

Something has to change

So tell me please, Were you searching for contentment?

You came home empty handed with a feeling of resentment

Smoke and mirrors, it’s just an illusion

The real world’s a joke and that’s my conclusion
