Bill Mericle - Smoke Screen Lyrics

Wondering what you thought
Of all the places that you've been
And all the people that you've known
And all the games and money thrown
It's like a bird that never flies
Like a song that never cries
Like a rock that never rolls
Like a fool
Withering away alone in an attic
A fortune in erratic
We all thought you knew what you were doing
It's like a wave that never flows
Like a bird that never knows
If it should fly or stay
It knows it might not last the day

It's a smoke screen in your mind
A past that won't fall behind
A light that won't leave you blind

Wandering around the planet
A circle made of granite
A crop that keeps on growing
Whether or not you sow it
After ten thousand years
Someone finally knows it
It's like a sound that never dies
Like a sigh that never sighs
Like a sound that never dies
Like a fly that never flies

It's a smoke screen in your mind
A past that won't fall behind
A light that won't leave you blind
