We followed the smoke
And choked back the ashes of memory
They can hurt much more than the damage
You see
No words were spoken
Back at the scene of the tragedy
Though a thousand questions echo in me
Reaching down
Hoping to rescue some remnants
Of the life we found
Holding our breath there’s still
Evidence of the ties that bound us
Baby there’s plenty here to save
Before we seal the grave
Hell of a scene
Skeleton beams in the fireglow
And a long, slow hiss for a serenade song
Bright, burning dream
Wrenched from the team by a silent foe
Ain’t no blessed kiss to restore what’s long gone
Confident and sure
But we never bargained for
All the demons at the door
Reaching down
Hoping to rescue some remnants
Of the life we found
Holding our breath there’s still
Evidence of the ties that bound us
Baby there’s plenty here to save
Before we seal the grave
Reaching down
Hoping to rescue some remnants
Of the life we found
Holding our breath there’s still
Evidence of the ties that bound us
Baby there’s plenty here to save
Before we seal the grave
Follow the smoke…
