Quiet as I watch wewe falling
wewe become a prey again
I can see your skin is crawling
Lipstick cases and sins
Wake up Wake up Wake up
You're drowning
Same old song and dance
Wake up Wake up Wake up
My Darling
Never stood a chance
Lost in upendo wewe are
Out of touch so far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
Always chasing scars
Never gets wewe far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
I hear it in her voice, she's stalling
"You were just another man"
Your claims of upendo are falling
Now it's clear wewe can't win
Wake up wake up wake up
Heart's pounding
Praying for romance
Wake up wake up wake up
It's sounding
Time to try again
Lost in upendo wewe are
Out of touch so far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
Always chasing scars
Never gets wewe far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
I'd rather be alone
Than put wewe on a throne
And lose my faith in smoke and mirrors
Black painted eyes
Cover the lies
It's time wewe threw away your cruel disguise
Lost in upendo wewe are
Out of touch so far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
Always chasing scars
Never gets wewe far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
I'd rather be alone
Than put wewe on a throne
And lose my faith in smoke and mirrors
wewe become a prey again
I can see your skin is crawling
Lipstick cases and sins
Wake up Wake up Wake up
You're drowning
Same old song and dance
Wake up Wake up Wake up
My Darling
Never stood a chance
Lost in upendo wewe are
Out of touch so far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
Always chasing scars
Never gets wewe far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
I hear it in her voice, she's stalling
"You were just another man"
Your claims of upendo are falling
Now it's clear wewe can't win
Wake up wake up wake up
Heart's pounding
Praying for romance
Wake up wake up wake up
It's sounding
Time to try again
Lost in upendo wewe are
Out of touch so far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors
Always chasing scars
Never gets wewe far
An illusion
It's all just smoke and mirrors

And lose my faith in smoke and mirrors
