Once I was lonely Before you came to know me Once I was innocent I knew you too early Before I knew a thing about me You showed me how to sin All smoke, no fire A divine facade Like a burning bush Without the voice of god Like oxygen I breathed you in I'm suffocating, s-suffocating All smoke, no fire But you had my mind Twisted up Around your lovely lies Like oxygen I breathed you in I'm suffocating, s-suffocating You promised me freedom From darkness and demons You cast all the shadows out As long as I praised you And loved you and paid you And bottled up every doubt Dead leaves and no branches Your smoke signal dances Once I believed but you cannot fool me anymore
