Smoke

by Joe Bonamassa

Lifting the weight of the world
So take this lung full of pure inspiration
Inhale this lung full to make me smile
And then we'll talk up a real conversation
So take this lung full, become more interesting
Now in your head
The thoughts that you see are depicted so marvelously
So now you see that the weight has lifted
And all your thoughts start to move fluently
I want to know what it is that you see depicted so gloriously
Burn it down, Burn it down, Burn it down
Set yourself free, burn it down(x3)
So tell me what it is that you see
Please tell me, describe its beauty
And then tell me what it is that you see
Depicted so marvelously
In your own head, haunted still by me
Still depicted so violently, so burn them down
Inhale this lung full of pure inspiration
And I promise that all your burden and worry will disappear
In a plume of smoke, in a plume of smoke
Burn it down, set yourself free(x2)

Smoke

by Longpigs

Maybe it'll rain today
And I won't have to leave my room
Givin' me the time
I need to get rid of your things
Enough procrastinating
For reasons that only I know
But I'm afraid to ask the mirror
The answers may sting
B-Section:
And the smoke
In my eyes makes it hard not to cry
Why you gone?
The reason is suppose to make sense
But it don't
Chorus:
Give me something
To spark the flame
Take away the pain
Take it away
I can feel the heat
From my face

Ooh
Holding on isn't healthy
But it's killin' me
To let go
Trying to stare
At your picture
But I can't see it
For all this smoke
Hmm
Not for all the smoke
Ooh
B-Section:
And the smoke
In my eyes makes it hard not to cry
Why you gone?
The reason is suppose to make sense
But it don't
But it don't
It don't
It don't
Oh, it don't

Maybe it'll rain today

Give me something to spark the flame
Take away the pain

From my face
Give me something to spark the flame
Take away the pain
Take it away
I can feel the heat

Over and out of it for one more plane ride out
I'm not sure I never what to this would all aside
it would
Wait here a month or two will pass
I'm sure I won't
Fake dear enough to give you by until we're home
I wish, I'd go
as fast as smoke
I wish, that I wrote you
one original note
Take me home, tuck me in
go down, do it again
take me home, tuck me in
go down, do it again
Over and out of it for one more plane ride out
I'm not sure i never what to this would all aside
I wish, I'd go
as fast as smoke
I wish, that I wrote you
one original note
Take me home, tuck me in
go down, do it again
take me home, tuck me in
go down, do it again

Man 1: Hey, Liz, what's in the box?
Man 2: What's in the box?
Man 3: What's in the box?
LIZ: It's my Little Voice of Self-Doubt.
LVoSD: Liz, ATO will never put this out!
You won't be washing dishes in this town!
They'll make mud out of you! Is that what you want?!
You're well on your way, kid!
It's CAREER SUICIDE!
Kaput!
Ka-blooey!
Ka-blam!
There--smoke on that!
There--smoke on that! (You dummy!)
Um, 'Liz Phair'?
Yacht Bouncer: Sorry, you're not on the list.
Could you check it again please?
YB: I already checked it. Please move to the back of the line.
Which list do I have to be on?
YB: If you have to ask, you're not on it.
Wait--Whoa! Whoa, whoa!
YB: You're NOT getting in.
Fine--Fuck you!
YB: Have fun on land.
There--smoke on that!
There--smoke on that! (You dummy!)
[NOTE: I couldn't decide how to describe/denote the Sick-Dog/Charlie-Brown's-Teacher/Braying-Jackass-Record-Exec voice. Actually, that's a pretty good description, come to think of it.]
SD/CB'sT/B-JRE:
No--I mean, Jon Brion's really cool, I just think we should do something a little more 'Chicago.'
SD/CB'sT/B-JRE:
Yeah, we could give a track to iTunes.
SD/CB'sT/B-JRE:
I don't know John Mayer. I met him.

Smoke

by Our Lady Peace

We are addicted
Addicted to your habits
We are distressed when
You‘re not around
Keep the fire burning
Keep the smoke coming
(Smoke)
Our days are wasted
If we don’t receive your comfort
You cast a spell
You silence every sound
Brothers become enemies
Prepared for any felony
Craving for felicity
Ready for atrocity
You strike a match and you smile
And all I can do
Is smile together with you
You lace the wine with a single tear
You are the force I used to fear
The smell of gas is spreading
Yet all I can do
Is keep on smoking with you
Your eyes sparkle, you’re sincere
You are the force I used to fear
Lost in reverie
I dream of sights I will never see
We are enchanted
By your need of protection
Soft and fragile
Sensitive ground
Keep the fire burning
Keep the smoke coming
(Smoke)
We are bewitched
By your deep understanding
And we will defend
The security we found
(You silence every sound)
Brothers become enemies
Ready for atrocity
You strike a match and you smile
And all I can do
Is smile together with you
You lace the wine with a single tear
You are the force I used to fear
The smell of gas is spreading
Yet all I can do
Is keep on burning for you
Your eyes sparkle, you’re sincere
You are the force I used to fear
Lost in reverie
I dream of sights I will never see
I dream of words I will never hear
You are the force I used to fear

My Lullaby, hung out to dry
What's up with that
It's over
Where are you dad
Mum's lookin' sad
What's up with that
It's dark in here
Why, bleeding is breathing
You're hiding underneath the smoke in the room
Try, bleeding is believing
I used to
My mouth is dry
Forgot how to cry
What's up with that
You're hurting me
I'm running fast
Can't hide the past
What's up with that
You're pushing me
Why, bleeding is breathing
You're hiding underneath the smoke in the room
Try, bleeding is believing
I used to
I used to
Why, bleeding is breathing
You're hiding underneath the smoke in the room
Try, bleeding is believing
I saw you crawling on the floor
Why, bleeding is believing
You're hiding underneath the smoke in the room
Try, bleeding is believing
I saw you crawling to the door
Why, bleeding is believing
You're hiding underneath the smoke in the room
Try, bleeding is believing
I saw you falling on the floor

Smoke

If I could I would be smoke
And I’d float myself out of here
And I’d go wherever you are
And I’d never have to be too far from here
And I’d linger in your fingers
A transparent shade of gray
And watch as you watch me
Slowly fade away
Into the night
Where are you when I need you by my side
Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Get lost in a moment
Wasting time trading smiles
Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Come on won’t you waste my time
Baby waste my time
Won’t you waste all my time
Things are never what they seem
Lately you’re all I dream
Well I’m running but I’m not getting anywhere and
Do you even care?
Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Get lost in a moment
Wasting time trading smiles
Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Come on won’t you waste my time
baby waste my time
Won’t you waste all my time
C’mon and waste all my time
I’m just trying to find my way
Between the glitter and the gray
Baby I just want some time with you
And ohh I swear this time I’ll make it through well well
Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Get lost in a moment
Wasting time trading smiles
Shouldn’t it be that easy
To just be happy for awhile
Come on won’t you waste my time
baby waste my time
Won’t you waste all my time
C’mon and waste all my time

Smoke
If I keep smoking
This cold'll never go away
If I keep talking
I know you'll never come and stay
Stand the two up next to the other
Don't feel strange to me my
Lover
All I got here is books and music
I used to have exercise but I out
Grew it
Say I'm going home
And you go silent
Never know what to do
Just say it's cool
And I'll feel
O.K.
I feel cold next to the fire
It's an old story
But I think I like it
All I got here is books and music
I used to have exercise but I out
Grew it
Say I'm going home
And you go silent
Never know what to do
Just say it's cool
And I'll feel
O.K.
I feel cold next to the fire
It's an old story but I think I like it
Spend your days
In indecision
I got a lot of things on my mind this
Morning
Say I'm going home
And you go silent
Never know what to do
Just say it's cool
And I'll feel
O.K.
I feel cold next to the fire
It's an old story but I think I like it
Spend your days
In indecision
I got a lot of things on my mind this
Morning

Smoke

by Billy Squier

Leaf by leaf and page by page throw this book away
All the sadness all the rage throw this book away
Rip out the binding and tear the glue
all of the grief we never even knew
we had it all along
Now it's Smoke
The things we've written in it never really happened
All the things we've written in it never really happened
All the people come and gone never really lived
All the people come have gone no one to forgive
Smoke
CHORUS
We will not write a new one
there will not be a new one
another one another one
here's an evening dark with shame
throw it on the fire
here's the time I took the blame
throw it on the fire
Here's the time we didn't speak
it seemed for years and years and
here's a secret
no one will ever know the reasons for the tears
they are smoke
CHORUS
We will not write a new one
there will not be a new one
another one another one
Where do all the secrets live
they travel in the air
you can smell them when they burn
they travel
Those who say the past is not dead
can stop and smell the smoke
you keep saying the past is not dead
well stop and smell the smoke
you keep on saying the past is not even past and
you keep on saying we are, Smoke

Smoke

The Bike was on the street
Outside a midtown bar
He went looking for a drink
Wasn't looking very hard
She was sitting on his seat
When he came out the door
She said run away with me.
He'd heard the line before
He said better men than me have been all but left behind.
She said we're doing pretty good if we can just get out alive.
She wrapped her arms around his waist
Nowhere to run to anyways
They bolted out into the streets
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Into the streets
Too many nights alone
Too many days gone by
With nothing much to show
She was running out of time
He was all she'd ever need
If they could just outrun the past
She said run away with me.
[ Lucero Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]
She tried but couldn't laugh
He said lesser men than me have put up better fights.
She said we're doing pretty good if we can just get out alive.
She wrapped her arms around his waist
Nowhere to run to anyways
They bolted out into the streets
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Unknown and beautiful
Freedom was all that she owned
She moved faster all on her own
But the freedom had left her, left her drifting like smoke
Left her drifting like smoke
He'd come on off the road
On his shoulder laid her cheek
The bitter taste of smoke
The bike between her knees
The engine running loud
Couldn't hear her if he tried
She spoke into the wind,
Run away with me tonight.
