All I See Is Smoke
Epic BluesLyrics
Here I am again
At the crossroads
I was sailin so smooth
Then darkness ebbed and flowed
Now I'm uninspired
Trapped in four walls
Outside weather's cold
I'm trying to reach
The brighter side of me
But all I see....is smoke
Burnin like the lit end of a cig
High spirits billow out of my core
They slowly fade
Then ride the wind
Now my youth is gone
And yet I was so close
I damn near walked through fire
Now all I see...is smoke
Faith is a distant memory
Everything I once believed in
Now an after thought
I loved and lost
I traveled the world then it quickly shrank
Did it all mean anything or not
I tried to shine and went for broke
In my soul I know still burns the flame
But right now all I see is smoke
Got close enough to shake hands with fortune and fame
Till the bright lights flew away like smoke
Then learned amongst the greatest minds
Just to realize we all blend in amidst the cloaks
I climbed the corporate ladder
The view from the top made everything look small
The armies of the world seemed but ants digging their own graves in shallow dirt they crawl
My telescope is out
I patiently search I'm holding on to hope
I'm searchin for the herth of purpose
But all I see is smoke
