Lyrics Smoke - John Louis

Smoke

I never said that I was bulletproof
Not sure what you expected
I guess I was destined to lose
I’m bleeding out under the crescent moon tonight
I always thought I was enough for you
When did that change?
‘Cause I was sure I was the one you would choose
I don’t know what the hell I’m gonna do
I was an oak, you were a flame
Burn me up again
Burn me up again
Set my heaving heart ablaze
Take me home again
Take me home again
My shivering bones could use some solace from the cold
You were my fire
You are my smoke
Honey, we’re running out of oxygen
Blow out that candle
I don’t think you realize what you’re doing
Don’t waste the air with any useless words…
«I love you.»
It’s gonna take some time before I’m fine
I was an oak, you were a flame
Burn me up again
Burn me up again
Set my heaving heart ablaze
Take me home again
Take me home again
My shivering bones could use some solace from the cold
You were my fire
In my head, I’m in your room
Your sheets smell of your perfume
My clothes look better on you
Strike a match, spray your aerosol
Burn down this house and take it all
Melt me down to a skeleton
I’ll always want your touch again
I was an oak, you were a flame
Burn me up again
Burn me up again
Set my heaving heart ablaze
Take me home again
Take me home again
My shivering bones could use some solace from the cold
You were my fire
You are my smoke
You are my smoke
