Like Moths To Flames - Smoke And Mirrors Lyrics






Lost in my own skin
Drowning it pulls me in
The silence echoing
Memories that I can't erase

Chasing death
Back to the start
Never knowing what I want until it falls apart
Buried grief
At the bottom with apathy
The silence echoing

No future, I've abandoned hope
Familiar feelings as I'm hanging at the end of my rope
No future without sacrifice
Familiar feelings that I'll never get this right

Afraid for when it falls apart
How do you cut the losses from an empty heart
Too late, where did I go wrong?
It's a slow decay, I should've seen all along

Lost in my own skin
Complacent waste
Incinerate
Smoke and mirrors are all I've ever known of my faith
A glass house
And I can't find a way to escape
Buried grief
At the bottom with apathy

A thin line between love and hate
To forget means that I forgave
It's a slow decay
Anxiously withering

A thin line between love and hate
To forget means that I forgave
It's a slow decay
Anxiously withering

Afraid for when it falls apart
How do you cut the losses from an empty heart
Too late, where did I go wrong?
It's a slow decay, I should've seen all along

Lost in my own skin
Drowning it pulls me in
The silence echoing
Memories that I can't erase
Memories that I can't erase

    So stoked I might nut

  13. A.... R....

    I’m literally taking a trip down memory lane listening to all the deathcore / metal core / hardcore bands I listened too in earlier 2000s and this is the only band that sounds the same
    😭❤️ it’s been like 8 years man since I came across their first album

  14. A.... K....

    Fucking love you fucking guys ♥️♥️♥️ saw you live I love you

  21. J.... M....

    2008 vibes

  22. E.... E....

    To everyone complaining about the mix..
    Does it have to be a perfect mix for you to see how amazing the song is as a whole, although I do agree the mixing could be better. Just appreciate an amazing band for putting out amazing music that they 100% believe in. Love the song, keep it coming!!

    E.... E....

    On top of that, it's YouTube. The song could have an incredible mix, but YouTube's compression would ruin it. If you really want to judge the mix, wait until you hear it on something besides this site.

    E.... E....

    The mixing definitely could use some work, but it's not too bad. I've certainly heard worse mixing and production. *cough cough* Matt Good *cough cough*

  23. N.... S....

    LMTF, you TRULY have no idea how happy these latest singles have made me. You guys perfected the metalcore sound, I literally jumped the fuck out of my chair when both of the singles kicked in. thank you

  24. N.... M....

    Luckily this was recommended. I forgot they weren't with rise anymore

  25. S.... ....

    Rick and morty?

  26. S.... S....

    I amazed chris the way he make clean voice and tones huge fan since emarosa

  27. A.... ....

    Drop a couple singles then New album as Usual!!!

  28. O.... H....

    Damm their 2 new singles are awesome! 😍😍😍

  29. T.... C....

    Vocals need to be turn down, way to loud. The mix doesn’t sound complete. Ehhhhh

  30. Z.... T....

    Yes please

  31. W.... I....

    Resurgiendo y resucitando, bien LMTF vas muy bien 💪💪👏💯🔝💯😎😎 disfrutando está y esperando las demás......

  32. P.... M....

    CAN'T WAIT FOR THE ALBUM

  33. K.... E....

    Angery boi roetter revives the sad parts in me

  34. S.... ....

    this is just perfect, and pure epicness.. those drums, that AMAZING chorus, fuck!!

  35. A.... H....

    Sounds like Chris is channeling his inner mid-2000s metalcore.

  36. D.... R....

    Fuck man, i love dark divine but this is already shaping up to be way more than that. But tbh it’s pretty obvious it’s not Greg diamond on the drums but i guess that’s not a bad thing, this new shit is incredible. I’m super stoked for this

  37. K.... W....

    Great song but the mix/production is not too good... hoping it is improved on the album

  38. p.... t....

    they come back

  39. r.... r....

    Cant wait for this album to drop!

  40. t.... ....

    New LMTF is amazing 🔥🤟

  41. K.... ....

    Nice, love this

  42. G.... R....

    Forever grateful for this band. Fuck yea chris! Bringing back some old lmtf vibe!!

  43. N.... K....

    Oh look it’s the image of the start up of original Xbox

  44. C.... ....

    🖤🤟🖤

  45. A.... B....

    that's real metalcore right there ! with some Monuments chugging, simply awesome !

  46. N.... E....

    3:08 the way Chris sings "drowning it pulls me in" really reminds me of Spencer Sotelo for some reason. Sometimes i feel like Chris is capable of a lot more and is holding himself back.

  47. L.... B....

    I saw this in my recommended and was so surprised I got here this late!!

  48. P.... I....

    mix is kinda trash, lmtf are dope, but that one aspect is letting them down imo

    P.... I....

    yea is sounds like the recording levels are just way too low right? like i had my volume on my phone all the way up without knowing but it sounded like it wasnt so i went to turn it up and thats when i realized it was at max volume im like da fuq??

    P.... I....

    @Rich Young yeah dude, sounds like it hasn't been mastered, like its just a demo they had laying around :/

    P.... I....

    @Prod. Isolation that shit is the worst. when you find an amazing band or song but there mixing is horrible and kinda ruins half of the enjoyment 😐

  49. L.... S....

    Wither part 2

  50. U.... U....

    Dark Divine sound but with more screams. I like it

  51. s.... ....

    ohhhhh FUCK THAT SONG !! <3
    i love it inmediatly

  52. E.... C....

    Eargasm!

  53. r.... ....

    Yeeeeaaaahhhh!!!! Holy shit this is very good

  54. C.... P....

    God what a banger

  55. R.... S....

    LMTF, I love it since album We Don't Need Existed

    R.... S....

    Ya mean When We Don't Exist?

  56. T.... F....

    in my opinion everything with the drums is wrong but besides that it sounds really good.

  57. y.... ....

    Pradas album disappointed.. Looking forward to this one

  58. W.... -....

    Powerful return to form. This kind of stuff is what made me fall in love with LMTF all those years ago

  59. 2.... ....

    new album 2019?2020?

  60. S.... S....

    Nut button👍🤣🙃🤘🤘🤘🔥🔥🔥🔥

  61. R.... N....

    Top 5 LMTF songs of all time holy shit this one hit me right in the feels

  62. M.... C....

    I thought this was gonna be a song about the dark portal from Warcraft

  63. S.... W....

    Not really feeling the mix...

    S.... W....

    It does feel a bit different from the first single. Still an awesome song though.

    S.... W....

    @Kyle Johnson Eh not really. In my opinion its the same sound that's been done a thousand times but not as good.

    S.... W....

    It's YouTube. Sounds much better on Pandora tbh 😂

    S.... W....

    Sounds better on Spotify

  64. N.... G....

    Tingles my butthole

  65. W.... R....

    I became a fan of this band a month ago.. it’s crazy that it took them so long to come out again. Hopefully they are touring would love to spend money to see them

    W.... R....

    They're on tour right now with wage war

  66. T.... K....

    I just felt like Benjamin Burnley should have composed the cleans.. something's is missing in the chorus... Can't pin point it exactly.. but yeah..

    T.... K....

    Yeah, seemed forced. Same with the last single. They should try doing more songs with zero cleans.

    T.... K....

    @Jason LovesABR i mean Chris has composed great choruses in AEFAE.. but this time, something's missing..

    T.... K....

    Agreed sadly 😞

    T.... K....

    To me, it sounds "thin" like maybe a bass issue?

    T.... K....

    @Mar D. Chafee yes... That's an issue too.. I talked about BB coz, most of the time, hard rock/alt metal choruses are way way better than metalcore..
    But yes.. this sounds thin

  67. C.... �....

    Such a masterpiece, love the chorus too much

  68. S.... ....

    Awesome song! Get this Album Out already! :)

  69. T.... A....

    Ngeriiii ...

  70. J.... B....

    Man I remember seeing these guys in Louisville got to meet them and donated some cash because it was hard on them last time I meant the singer he actually recognized me great guy glad they made it big

    J.... B....

    Chris is one of the nicest dudes you'll ever meet. I love this band because he writes things I can relate to and understand without knowing him personally. I feel like we kind of deal with he same feelings but different experiences. I've been listening to them since like 2011. They're amazing live too. Too bad they're so underrated.

  71. J.... L....

    I hate to be that guy but this song literally sounds identical to Bury Tomorrow's The Burden mixed with Silent Planet's Nervosa. Meh, its just decent.

    J.... L....

    Yupp.. it's decent.. okayish

    J.... L....

    Then don’t be that guy

    J.... L....

    @Wayne - O Well given the fact that everyone seems to be enjoying the song it doesn't hurt to give out a differing opinion. I'm not saying that I hate the song or anything but LMTF could use a bit more originality.

    J.... L....

    @Jason LovesABR how could you give a different opinion??? Huh

    J.... L....

    Jason LovesABR I agree. I love LMTF but more originality would be refreshing.

  72. S.... H....

    IS FUCKIN INCREDIBLE AHHJJJ THE BEST BAND

  73. A.... F....

    Here comes the heaviness!!!! Waiting for the wholw album!!!!

  74. L.... P....

    🔥🔥🔥 DAMN IT BRUH!!!... Chris BREACKDOWNS 🤘👹🤘

  75. N.... N....

    2/2 BEASTLY singles!

    N.... N....

    One more is coming this year

    N.... N....

    Nik - please react to Novelist's new song :O

    N.... N....

    Please react to this 😀

    N.... N....

    Hell yeah

  76. M.... S....

    Album now ? Last two singles were mad, need a whole album like this

    M.... S....

    Mr Str brotha every song I check out you already commented on 😂

    M.... S....

    @Sanifoxers ahah, I guess we share the same tastes in music!

    M.... S....

    Mr Str almost identical so far 🤣

  77. K.... W....

    Cant wait to see you guys tonight!
    Shows gonna be lit!🖤🤙

  78. t.... ....

    This is the type of song you have to hear 3 or 4 times to decide if you like it, and I already did and can tell I like it

  79. c.... b....

    Pretty good

  80. r.... ....

    There’s no one in this scene that can write a chorus like Chris

    r.... ....

    Tyler Ballard yeah dude. Even when he took over attack attack for that one album those songs were heat

    r.... ....

    @Nikita Ember Definitely, yes there are a few names in Metalcore that write good chorus'. But specifically talking of chris his flow is really unique. Compared to Caleb Shomo for ex. was does more basic chorus melodies, but does the basics better than anyone else.

    r.... ....

    Jesse Cash (Erra), Jake Steinhauser (Polaris)
    I will say that Dark Divine, and the new stuff has been a pretty big glo-up for LMTF's clean vocals.

    r.... ....

    It’s weird, id day his chorus writing style is lowkey pretty basic but he knows how to spin such a twist on them to where they just become instantly unique and identifiable. Underrated vocalist in the genre for sure

    r.... ....

    Chris is a beast on cleans forsure. Lukas mayger has some of the best cleans ive heard tho in this kinda style. And he does them even better live. Im always super impressed how good he is at those super high belts and runs like on three fifty my voice always cracks like a motherfucker trying to sing that shit, he reminds me of perphery's vocalist if he had a better tone (imo) lol

  81. R.... B....

    q batera toppen

  82. T.... ....

    This song made my soft ice cream into concrete

    T.... ....

    ToxicManana and I got a boner in a second

  83. C.... ....

    Here since Agraceful.

    C.... ....

    Here since Emarosa

    C.... ....

    Here since corsets are cages

    C.... ....

    Haha same.. This'll go over peoples head though. That was almost 10 years ago

  84. T.... C....

    OH OKAYYYY 🥴

  85. J.... C....

    Fuck yes

  86. a.... ....

    They’ve progressed so far from their first album. Happy to see these guys still kicking ass, and still improving their sound (especially the guitarists)

    a.... ....

    Yeah and the drumming too if you ask me

    a.... ....

    They've went through so many different drummers. I really dig the dude that's in the band now.

  87. C.... Y....

    Not that heavy but still quality LMTF

  88. T.... K....

    *Anxiously Withering*
    Now that's dark😑😑

    T.... K....

    Wither away to gray.

    T.... K....

    @Jason LovesABR yeah i know.. but "anxiously" takes it to new level..

  89. A.... ....

    Wow. ❤

  90. O.... C....

    Was not expecting a new track :o

  91. T.... E....

    I will be forever grateful for new LMTF. They never disappoint.

    T.... E....

    i know it seems like LMTF , MIW and DGD are the only bands that are still good from the 2010 era , the rest have went to shit even parkways new music is terrible ...

  92. D.... W....

    Yes, this is a LMTF song.

  93. P.... B....

    That drop fucking tickled me.

  94. t.... ....

    Hooray just got to the gym!

    t.... ....

    @Nikhil Shakya I'm going to hit legs soon.
