Smoke and Mirrors

You confessed one day to have been a snake and deceiver But when your moment came, to shed that skin You just slithered away You just slithered away Crystal clear to us all, when you say "We all want the same thing" That you don't, you want the bigger piece and the praise There are those who have seen, and those soon to beware What your smoke is concealing Just a trail of bones, atop a lemming's hill All fallen prey All fallen prey All fallen prey To the liar Not a saint Not a martyr Just a snake And a liar We used to believe, when you'd say "Were all in this together" No more, we all see Now the mirror is broken, we all know What your spell was concealing Just hollow eyes, a stolen crown but Not a king No, not a king No, not a king Just the liar Not a saint Not a martyr Just a snake And a liar
