Black Smoke

(الألبوم: Falling Down A Mountain - 2010)

I got shot down
Black smoke in my lungs and in my eyes
Black smoke in my feelings
Black smoke that I leave behind

I got shot down
I told myself I was
Greedy for it
I was greedy for it

I went down to the river
But the river's drowned
I went down to the river
But the river's choked in black smoke, black smoke

Black smoke, black smoke
Black smoke, black smoke
Black smoke, black smoke
Black smoke, black smoke

I was fooling around
I got flirting with that jangling
Trying it on for size
I'm checking out my reflection

I got ground down
I went through the cogs of a giant mill, I was
Greedy for it
I was greedy for it

I went down to the river
But the river's drowned
I went down to the river
But the river's choked in black smoke, black smoke

Hey, on the vicar's hands
Black smoke, black smoke
On the aprons of midwives
Black smoke, black smoke
In the streets and the chambers of where we
Black smoke, black smoke
Where we eked out our lives
Black smoke, black smoke

I got ground down
I told myself I was
Greedy for it
I was greedy for it

Hey, I know I can see my feelings now
I can see the outline of my feelings now

Hey, on the vicar's hands
Black smoke, black smoke
On the aprons of midwives
Black smoke, black smoke
In the streets and the chambers of where we
Black smoke, black smoke
Where we eked out our lives
Black smoke, black smoke

I got shot down
It was in the midnight hour, it was
Like that slow song, slow song
It was so easy to dance to

Hey, and we paid [?]
And we'd make love in the afternoon
As though nothing was wrong
As though nothing was
One-two-three
