Mirror mirror on the wall
Say you're the fairest of em' all
If that's the truth
Than fair just ain't for me
Mirror staring back at me
The only thing that I can see
Is false hope and insecurity
Fallen short of grace again
A broken shell of a man
The only thing I lay down at your feet
He's tried and tried to float ashore
To somewhere never been before
And the wind and waves
Are something he can't beat
Smoke and mirrors aren't crystal clear
But I know who you are
Full of shame, self-doubt, self-blame
I searched near and far
I don't know where to go
I don't know where to turn
Through smoke and mirrors
Something has to burn

Mirror mirror can't you see
You're not the man I want to be
There's something in your eyes
I don't believe
I cast a stone upon your face
Shattered glass across the place
That held me back
From where I'm supposed to be
Smoke and mirrors aren't crystal clear
But I know who you are
Full of shame, self-doubt, self-blame
I searched near and far
I don't know where to go
I don't know where to turn
Through smoke and mirrors
Something has to burn
I don't know where to go
I don't know where to turn
Through smoke and mirrors
Something has to burn
I'm burnin' bridges to the north
I'm burnin' bridges to the south
I bite my tongue
To keep the words from my pouring out my mouth
Well I've learned to hide my feelings
Suppress the pain and hurt
That's something that I'll carry
Til' I'm six feet in the diir-ir-ir-irt
Smoke and mirrors aren't crystal clear
But I know who you are
Full of shame, self-doubt, self-blame
I searched near and far
I don't know where to go
I don't know where to turn
Through smoke and mirrors
Something has to burn
But I don't know where to go
I don't know where to turn
Through smoke and mirrors
Something has to burn, burn, burn
