Black Smoke

When you look at me

You know you're hard to read

Because the face I see is not the one I know

And when you call me baby

What's that supposed to mean?

I don't know who you are, how long can we pretend?

See the change I know

We both don't have the heart to say

Can't return to what we were

We'll never be the same

'Cause you said, you'd never let me go

And I said, I can, but now we know

That it's too hard to say three words

Too hard to make it work

When there's nothing left to talk about

'Cause you know the flame is running out

Two hearts are left to burn, do you know?

We're only left with smoke

Black smoke

We're only left with smoke

Black smoke

I try to tell myself

That it's all in my head

But the truth remains, we're just too far apart

You know we're fooling ourselves if we hold on

'Cause we're fighting for something that we don't want

Just leave it now and walk away

See the change I know

We both don't have the heart to say

Can't return to what we were

We'll never be the same

'Cause you said, you'd never let me go

And I said, I can, but now we know

That it's too hard to say three words

Too hard to make it work

When there's nothing left to talk about

'Cause you know the flame is running out

Two hearts are left to burn, do you know?

We're only left with smoke

(Too hard to say three words)

Black smoke

(Too hard to make it work)

We're only left with smoke

(Too hard to say three words)

Black smoke

(Too hard to make it work)

'Cause you say, you'll never let me go, no

Yeah, you said, you'd never let me go, yeah

'Cause you said, you'd never let me go

And I said, I can, but now we know

Too hard to say three words

Too hard to make it work

When there's nothing left to talk about

'Cause you know the flame is running out

Two hearts are left to burn, do you know?

We're only left with smoke

Hey, black smoke

We're only left with smoke

Black smoke

We're only left with smoke
