Smoke and Mirrors
I danced a tango with my hubris high on youthWe swept across the dance floor to subjective truth
But there was no harmony thereNo reason for coexistenceNothing to span the distance, now
Do we even know who we areLiving like all life is forfeitLike we can just go redefine itRegardless what we broke
Who died and made us starsWith our intellectual gambitsOur millionaire flair and our anticsWe're like mirrors seen through smoke
I tried a shanty with the fool to find my paceAnything from puns to jests to intertwine our ways
But there was no loyalty to hopeAnd funny the need for mercyHow it makes us bleed all mercy, now
Do we even know who we are...
Now the melody's void of sympathycos that shit's in byte size bits on YouTubeso tell me what am I supposed to doWhen the malady's no remedyTill we reach the lowest absoluteAnd necessity will finally force something through what's walling you
Do we even know who we are...
