The Magician lyrics

This is my first submission of lyrics. The lyrics just describe a night out and how people who go out with the aim of getting a guy might create this illusion to hide a boring personality. Its intended to be part of a catchy riff based indie rock tune.

THE MAGICIAN

So then tell me the proposition
Tonight there is intent
She puts on her favourite personality
The towns getting painted red

We're both wearing our chosen coats
Can't risk being plain as a spade
You wear a sense of charm around that neck
Charisma and wit are gunna be.. the tools of this trade!

CHORUS
Once we progress beyond the science of the pull, theres that feeling in my gut
Didnt realize that this chocolate would be quite so hollow
When shooting i often aim.. for my foot


I never doubted the illusion
Offering the chocolate but just a lick
Honesty is the fallacy
But then again a good magician never reveals.. her tricks

You kept the cards close to your chest
Pulling magnitism out of a hat
Offering no substance beyond the vale
For future notice, you cant just rely on that

CHORUS

Who'd of guessed those cards held to her chest
