Ben Folds - Smoke Lyrics
Leaf by Leaf page by pageThrow this book awayAll the sadness all the rageThrow this book awayRip out the binding, tear the glueAll of the grief we never ever knewWe had it all alongNow its smokeThe things we've written in itNever really happenedAll of the people come and goneNever really livedAll of the people have come have goneNo one to forgive smokeWe will never write a new oneThere will not be a new oneAnother one, another oneHere's an evening dark with shameThrow it on the firehere's the time I took the blameThrow it on the fireHere's the time we didn't speakit seemed for years and yearsHere's a secretNo one will ever know thereasons for the tearsThey are smokeWhere do all the secrets liveThey travel in the airYou can smell them when they burnThey travelThose who say the past is not deadStop and smell the smokeYou keep on saying the past is not deadCome on and smell the smokeYou keep saying the past is not even pastYou keep sayingWe are, smoke
