duncan sheik - smoke and mirrors lyrics

[verse 1]
i received the invitation, out of thin air it appeared
but there was no time or place, no party, no premiere
and if there was a sender, discretion was their strongest suit
i made my preparations, as if one could prepare
for an evening’s entertainment or a relative nightmare
but i shouldn’t have been worried, the consequence was absolute

[chorus]
there’s no more “i”
to kiss you goodbye
and nothing to see here
so please don’t try
to understand why
it’s all smoke and mirrors
[verse 2]
here’s the implication having come upon this sp+ce
i don’t know where i am, even if i am someplace
i never really got here, i guess i never have to leave
in my imagination, i hear a steady hiss
the memories i lose, the futures that i miss
if there is a sadness at least there’s nothing left to grieve

[refrain]
’cause nothing dies
time is a lie
there’s nothing to see here
the hue and cry
the light in the sky
it’s all smoke and mirrors

[bridge]
there’s no demand
to understand
at all, at all…
you never know
how it goes
you never know
you just suppose

[chorus]
no more “i”
to kiss you goodbye
and nothing to see here
so please don’t try
to understand why
it’s all smoke and mirrors
[refrain]
’cause nothing dies
time is a lie
there’s nothing to see here
the hue and cry
the light in the sky
it’s all smoke and mirrors
