Smoke and Mirrors
Deception's Embrace: A Tale of Betrayal and Flames
Lyrics
I should have seen it coming
I failed to anticipate the situation
Slipping through the cracks
Things were slipping away unnoticed
Cold and sharpened daggers
Sharp, cold betrayal or deception
Proudly shining in my back
Betrayal proudly displayed, causing harm
Lights tasted so different
Perception of lights changed, possibly a metaphor for the changed reality
Growing on my tongue
Sensory experience of lights on the tongue
You burning blue eyes are distant
The person's blue eyes, which were once intimate, now seem distant
When did it all go wrong?
Reflecting on when things went wrong
My heart is weak and her hands are cold
Personal vulnerability, contrasted with someone else's coldness
She was the first to speak
The woman took the initiative to speak
That's how she stole my soul
A significant moment where the speaker feels their soul was taken
I keep wondering how
Reflecting on the process of breaking down emotional barriers
To tear down all the walls
A desire to dismantle emotional defenses
Dust would never settle
An environment of constant uncertainty and confusion
We'd get lost in the fog
Getting lost in emotional obscurity
My heart is weak and her hands are cold
Reiteration of vulnerability and coldness
She was the first to speak
The woman initiated communication again
That's how she stole my soul
A repetition of feeling soulfully robbed
Wе started a fire
The beginning of a destructive event or relationship
Now we'rе choking on smoke
Consequences of the destructive event, suffocating in its aftermath
Flames are rising higher
The intensity of the destructive event escalating
But the dirt won't get
Despite the chaos, there is no escape from the consequences
My heart is weak and her hands are cold
Reiteration of personal vulnerability and the woman's coldness
She was the first to speak
The woman taking the lead in communication once more
That's how she stole my soul
A recapitulation of feeling soulfully robbed
