Smoke Clouds from If by Jessamine Grace
2013. Smoke Clouds is a short angry song I wrote many years ago about a pit I was falling in to. Sometimes we don't realise where we are or where we're going until we have a bitter moment of self-reflective clarity.

Lyrics
Cigarettes and drinking vodka,
Getting higher than the sky,
Is this all that your life's good for?
Just to tell another lie?
Roling fags and scrounging filters,
Scrimp and scrape for one ten bit,
Cheap deodorant, aftershave,
Don't waste your time you smell like shit.
Nightmares unfurling,
Behind your closed eyes,
Smoke Clouds untwirling,
To show you your life.
Greasy hair and blood shot eyes,
Looking over shoulders twice,
Frantic heart and shaking fingers,
Thousand thoughts race through your mind,
Group of people sat around you,
Don't pretend to call them friends,
A roll, a puff, a pass the risks,
Don't be thick, that's where it ends.
Nightmares unfurling,
Behind your closed eyes,
Smoke clouds untwirling,
To show you your life.
