Smoking
When I smoke I remember my mother smoking There can't be healing until it's all broken Break me The windows are open The beast has awoken Break me Remind me of my devotion Find me Apart from the world In an ocean that dances and curls its foul tides around focus Aren't these the words that I hoped for? Me and the notepad Like all is right with the world What's the world for? Give me a space to be Void Give me the memories back I Destroyed That girl from the Past That laid the foundation Stones Let her come take me home now I need her Letras de cancionesWhen I smoke I remember my mother smoking There can't be healing until it's all broken Break me The beast has awoken Break me Remind me of my devotion Find me involved in the world All these fast talkers are trying to take hold of the world Thoughtless remarks and bold suppositions I'm sick of their mission Stop solving the world and start listening The world in the palms of your children No progeny needed for needless misogyny needling my Gentle demeaner I'm neither your wife nor your sister I'm deeper I'm here I'm a spear I'm a Shield I'm the light in the field I'm the vast promise revealed to be falsehood The whole nation Attacked by a notion that all we were built for is No good Devotion when nothing's secure Is devotion worth more I'm the boat on the shore I'm the notepad that nobody noticed before I'm the back of your neck in the moment the whole world attacks You want facts I want things I can't have Like I want to go back Take the child who destroyed Every inch of herself to be One of the boys Give her bits of myself Give her strength Give her poise My mother within me Making nothing but Noise When I smoke I remember my mother smoking There can't be healing until it's all broken Break me The windows won't open The beast has awoken Break me Remind me of my devotion When I smoke I remember My mother smoking No healing 'til it's all broken Break me down to stardust Let the night air take me Stop the clocks Let the nightmare wake me Floating islands set behind closed eyelids Drones and sirens Everything at home's wireless Coded silence, pictures always so vibrant You feel the rush and then it goes silent We made plans to rule the world But we fooled ourselves True test was learning how to rule ourselves Trapped in a smartphone with all our cells Feasting off the data from all our cells Stop believing in all our spells Became patterns in the sequence They taught us well Hidden under all our shells Gave away our secrets And built all our hells I see my son's eyes Same force that makes the sun rise Free reigns can become ties Free voice becomes tongue tied Seeking free space of some kind Where free plains, don't become minds We barter for a fraction of our worth Scared to live our life with the passion it deserves Trying to focus but distraction every turn Can only hope that the passenger returns From the journey Sucking the fear we are worry Trying not to be the only thing that we can be Scroll the timeline trying to feel something roughly All became still I stared at the screen blankly It's all so complex, and yet The simplest of times are the ones you recollect Like those were the days before tinged with regret The sad song plays to a dim silhouette Hard to check for a symbol of respect In a land where a man can buy a kingdom with a cheque Salesmen selling you some wisdom in a set It's always the wisdom you forget When I smoke I remember my mother smoking No healing till it's all broken Break me From Letras Mania
