Smoke
A smear of grey across the sky
A warning in the distance
An indecipherable alarm
And there we stood, our mouths agape
The deer caught in the headlights
Our minds adrift and far from harm
[Smoke on the horizonCan the flames be far behind? We run for cover, but it's too lateWe are engulfed, we areThe smoke on the horizon]
Nothing ventured, nothing lost
We paid the price, but at what cost?
We sold our future to the past
Accept a necessary doom
Too easily and way too soon
Ignore the wisdom we amassed
[Smoke on the horizonCan the flames be far behind? We run for cover, but it's too lateWe are engulfed, we areThe smoke on the horizon]
A smudge of ash across the ground
An undelivered message
All that remains is memory
A gust of wind across the plains
Carries away the remnants
Into forgotten history
A warning in the distance
An indecipherable alarm
And there we stood, our mouths agape
The deer caught in the headlights
Our minds adrift and far from harm
[Smoke on the horizonCan the flames be far behind? We run for cover, but it's too lateWe are engulfed, we areThe smoke on the horizon]
Nothing ventured, nothing lost
We paid the price, but at what cost?
We sold our future to the past
Accept a necessary doom
Too easily and way too soon
Ignore the wisdom we amassed
[Smoke on the horizonCan the flames be far behind? We run for cover, but it's too lateWe are engulfed, we areThe smoke on the horizon]
A smudge of ash across the ground
An undelivered message
All that remains is memory
A gust of wind across the plains
Carries away the remnants
Into forgotten history
