I'd be a downer if you'd let me
You'd hear from friends I lost my mind
I'd go let everyone forget me
I'd be content and stay inside
I'd close the texts that people send me
I'd dim the lights and shut my blinds
But every second that were spending
It makes me think I'll be alright
I feel fine
You help erase that part of me so I can see that life is better on this side
And I realize
That I know I wanna stay here
Where it's clear
And not alone in here chasing
Smoke and mirrors
Disappear
You pull me out of this wasteland
I'd do my best to go unnoticed
You'd wonder where I'd gone to hide
I'd be content with feeling hopeless
And wouldn't have a reason why
I'd lock the doors if people would come over
Make some excuse up like I'm tired
But it feels better when you're closer
It makes me think I'll be alright
I feel fine
You help erase that part of me so I can see that life is better on this side
And I realize
That I know I wanna stay here
Where it's clear
And not alone in here chasing
Smoke and mirrors
Disappear
You pull me out of this wasteland
I'm alright, I'll be fine anytime
Cause with you I can finally say
That I know I wanna stay here
Where it's clear
No more smoke and mirrors
I used to lay here only half awake
Yeah I remember when the colors faded
I used to lay here and my heart would ache
But I would stay here hoping you could make it
I used to lay here only half awake
Yeah I remember it was always raining
I used to lay inside the mess I made
You pulled me out and made me realize
That I know I wanna stay here
Where its clear
And not alone in here chasing
Smoke and mirrors
They disappear
You pull me out of this wasteland
I'm alright, I'll be fine anytime
Cause with you I can finally say
That I know I wanna stay here
Where it's clear
No more smoke and mirrors
I'm alright, I'll be fine anytime
Cause with you I can finally say
That I know I wanna stay here
Where it's clear
No more smoke and mirrors
