Smoke (Inside) Lyrics

Locked up in this cell

With no one left to blame

Not that you could tell

But I'm too tired to escape

The floor is hard, the air is cold

Its no place for me to lie

And I took too much of whatever that was

Someone please turn off the ride

Slow this bird down

Slow this bird down

Slow this bird down

Slow this bird down

Slow this bird down

Slow this bird down

Slow this bird down

Slow this bird down

I live and breathe to appear beneath

The eyes of an audience in my screen

I'm just asleep, stuck in a dream

I pray I wake up from some day

Its alternating in my hand

From coast to coast, to shining sea

I do believe I'm in too deep

The façade has won, I admit defeat

I live and breathe to appear beneath

The eyes of an audience in my screen

(Slow this bird down)

I'm just asleep, stuck in a dream

I pray I wake up from some day

(Slow this bird down)

Its alternating in my hand

From coast to coast, to shining sea

(Slow this bird down)

I do believe I'm in too deep

The façade has won, I admit defeat

(Slow this bird down)

And I could set fire to an open door

And I could set fire to another one

But that's not me

I am a human person

I have skin and I have hair and I have teeth

That's all I am, sometimes it seems

And it all becomes so obvious

And it's all so inconsequential

Let us all know the obvious

That I had so, so much potential

Slow this bird down

Slow this bird down

Slow this bird down

Everyone is waiting, we are sitting down for you

We are hungry for a revelation to consume

I don't want to live like this, with string stuck to my hand

Someone slow this bird, I fear that it's about to land
