lyrics

Smoke I feel your fire
I ain’t broke, I’m made of iron

Sky’s looking gloomy from the rain I’m assuming
A break from the city is a welcome opportunity
Somebody save me before I go crazy
Well I’m a nomad - and no, I’m not mad - I just I know it ain’t over ’til the lady rolls over

Smoke til’ I feel your fire
I won’t choke - I’m too inspired

Why do I go in circles around you?
I want to come through
Feeling wide-eyed - sober the older I get

Smoke - I feel your fire
I ain’t broke, I’m made of iron

Take time when I know I’m in over my head
I’m sweating bullets from the same thing
Paint the town, getting loud
Shut it down like a movie star
I’m built for the stage
No smoke & mirrors but the real thing
So baby, baby now don’t you snooze
Don’t you snooze

Wide-eyed
Shine the light
Check the mic
All for you I sing
It’s all smoke & mirrors
