1476 - To Call Up Smoke Lyrics

O the smoke blows through the trees
Eyes blind as you’re perfumed in kerosene
And the flames you cannot see
Are like the company you keep
They’re ghosts roaming through your streets
Aimlessly…

See the smoke rise around her sin
Death resides where her lies begin
And you chase down the chagrin
With Bombay gin
Hell, sometimes you just can’t win

Call up smoke to save the soul’s demise
It blankets truth to keep you safe at night
You throw curses and you cry
In desperation, at your plight
But don’t forget that you set your own fire

Behold! The smoke up in the sky
Casting shadows everywhere God hides
You pray day and night
And you don’t know why
“Hey God, can you show me some light?”

Feel the smoke whisk out from your mouth
Blending with your breath’s congested sound
And sometimes you think out loud
When your patience hits the ground
“Next time, I won’t be found
When you decide to come around.”

Call up smoke to save the soul’s demise
It blankets truth to keep you safe at night
You throw curses and you cry
In desperation, at your plight
But don’t forget that you set your own fire

Dream the smoke inside your home
Dream in fear that you will not atone
But nightmares come and go
Like every lover you have known
But when truth arrives, you face it on your own
When truth cries, you console it on your own
