smoke - phantom version

I never thought it'd be this hard to fuel the fire
A flaming beacon shining through the dark of night
I never thought it'd be this hard to say goodbye
To all the things I thought would keep my soul alight

My story isn't over, but I've reached this chapter's end
And I don't have a notion as to how to start again

When the rain falls down, and my soul pours out
And the flame within me's burning down
It's oh so hard for my trembling heart
To hold to hope as it all goes up in smoke

I never thought it'd be this hard to find my way
Seeking, searching, in this lonesome world of grey

My lantern only lights so far beyond the place I stand
To guide me past the treacherous chasms of this unknown land

When the rain falls down, and my soul pours out
And my roadmap's gone, and I'm feeling lost
I try to see what's in front of me
In a nameless land, and all I see is smoke

So tell me why I feel an overwhelming peace
Tell me why I feel a fullness in my need
From life to life, from death to death, I trust Him for His grace
Behind a frowning Providence, He hides a smiling face

When the rain falls down, and my soul pours out
I'm burdened down, but I won't burn out
I'll testify with my worn heart's cry
"Jesus made my life go up in smoke"
Up in smoke
