When The Smoke Clears

(album: Matisyahu - 2022)

When the smoke clears
They just forget again
Eyes stare into space
Like you just let him in
When the moon is full
We begin again
As the time is ticking
So tell me where's the medicine

Now the summer rolls around it's the tail end
Wind up in my sails I'm wondering when will this tale end
Hung up by a nail keep sliding and watch the rail bend
This year has been such a hell of a hair bend

Music is the only thing in this crazy world that makes sense to me
How can I live with this pressure when it's raining down on me
Roots stay like a tree how can I stand when them stand on me
Yes we shall see
I demand like when they split the sea
Like the ways like the waves of the past centuries
You're telling me I'm telling you but now we just can't see

When the bubble bust
The bubble pop
Like a kettle top
It's whistling up
It's burning hot
It'll never stop
It'll never drop
