Smoke and Mirrors
We dreamed of becoming more than what we were.
And we escaped in the smoke that filled the room.
Our souls trapped...
Jailed behind our ribcages.
So we sat there...
Changing out the records.
Mouthing all the lyrics.
Waiting for the perfect moment to speak words.
Those times never came...
Instead we became more silent.
Inhaling the smoke.
Exhaling it all the same.
And I sat there wondering what else was out there.
I felt so comfortable in your surroundings.
Too high to realize what was really going on.
I broke the cycle.
The routine of a roller coaster ride that wasn't fun.
Longing for something more.
Wondering if I deserved better.
Even when I thought you were the best...
I started to question that.
My love for you may never die...
But my addictions did.
My tears brought on the clouds.
And I had to follow the sun.
No more.
No more tears.
No more love to give to you.
