"Smoke And Mirrors" lyrics

Oh
Oh, yeah

Did you hear about the news today?
All people pushin' for a new kind of way
From city to city, to coast to coast
From the blue collar worker to the older folks

Oh, our bills to pay
Oh, I've got to say
Oh, we gotta find our way
Before the big guns take it and we find

Smoke and mirrors, lies and despair
Born to keep us all in line
Smoke and mirrors, get out of my way
'Cause I'm searchin' for some truth in our time

There's a picture that I saw today
Of a young man that man that back to USA
He got a Purple Heart for his courage to brave
Oh, but they won't have it 'til he knows pain, no

Oh, it ain't easy
Tryna find our way back home
Oh, it ain't easy
When empty words are spoken

Smoke and mirrors, lies and despair
Born to keep us all in line
Smoke and mirrors, get out of my way
'Cause I'm searchin' for some truth in our time, oh

Yeah

Smoke and mirrors, lies and despair
Born to keep us all in line
Smoke and mirrors, get out of my way
'Cause I'm searchin' for some truth in our time
Smoke and mirrors, lies and despair
Born to keep us all in line, oh
Oh, and bring me down today (Get out of my way)
Before the big guns take it and we find that the well runs dry

Did you hear about the news today
All people pushin' for a new kind of way
