Light stings his eyes Can't turn back now It was so slow that they couldn't predict it His mind is just treading in infinite space Cause he can't believe some mysterious chamber Broke a dangerous leak That turned to a storming sea it's swallowing up The last that he knew of beauty Was it all smoke and mirrors A man walked in the room And sat by his son Here are the words that are meant to be spoken This is my purpose, of these words you should know Close your eyes now This is the last strength you'll have Remember your life it was a brilliant color Remember your mother she was a glowing ember Remember your heart it had a perfect owner Was it all smoke and mirrors Was it all smoke and mirrors Sleep now, diving up in pools Sleep sound leave your fears to fools Was it all smoke and mirrors Was it all smoke and mirrors
