Red Handed Denial
Smokescreen
[Verse 1]
Bend me, break me
Whittle me down to nothing more than a daydream, charade
Dancing in a wicked masquerade
I've spent my life protecting who I love from who I am
The vicious games you play
Conceal your motives like a snake
[Pre-Chorus]
Smokescreen
Betray your blood
The damage is engrained
The pious lies you preach
Your soapbox echoing
Without suspicion, there is no love here
[Chorus]
Day after day
I am haunted by the things that I can't change
Fairwеather faith
Beneath thе weight I'll carry to your grave
[Verse 2]
Unsafe, no refuge
No space, so subdued
No sanctuary for the “damned” and the “broken”
Your empty heads in sand
Let's pretend I don't exist
[Pre-Chorus]
Smokescreen
Betray your fucking blood
The damage is done
The pious lies you preach
Your soapbox echoing
Without suspicion, there is no love here
[Chorus]
Day after day
I am haunted by the things that I can't change
Fairweather faith
Beneath the weight I'll carry to your grave
Day after day
I am haunted by the things that I can't change
Fairweather faith
Beneath the weight I'll carry to your grave
[Bridge]
It begs the question
It begs the question
Would you still love me?
Would you still love me?
[Outro]
Unsafe
I beg
No more charade
Await your grave
