Smoke and Mirrors...





Do we really want to know what my songs are about, boys and girls? This song in particular, of course?

It's about people that you know are putting on an act...
It's also kinda how I made the music. ;)
Sorry, trade secret, can't tell any more! :o

And ok, you-know-who, I will go back to writing the Jaded Dawn stuff now. For a while. :P Until the mood takes me again...

Well I've got nothing, pure nothing
Why are you looking at me?
There's no justification for the admiration
No reason for it to be
Maybe you're trying (yeah very trying)
To cut into my mind...
I'll tell you, don't explain
Don't even entertain the idea
if you don't know what you'll find

But if the smoke and mirrors work
If the vision's alive
Then why reveal the other side of the coin
Let's leave the concepts unjoined...

Now I see you've made it
Or at least you try
Made a blurry mark to the naked eye
and you've shed your skin like the snake that you are
Who'd have guessed you'd make it so far?
I'm so happy for you - I think I might cry
You come into my life and these feelings run high
And you know I won't tell
but I'm tempted indeed to reveal the truth
And you'll find you need

The smoke and mirrors to work
To keep the vision alive
and try to conceal the other side of the coin
Let's leave the concepts unjoined...

But you'll find out I know
Yeah you'll learn the hard way I know
I know
