Smoke Break

There’s a road laid out before me paved in gold
Slowly winding through the forests of the soul
Far from the city’s glow
All of these horns and trains and sirens take their toll
I need to find escape before I lose control
The madness breaks
Lost in the calm beside the lake
The time and space
All of the sudden unimportant
your fears and cares are dormant and misplaced
I need a smoke break from this crazy life
I need a smoke break from this city life
The concrete walls and pillars stacking up so high
I want to be where the horizon meets the sky
no airplanes passing by
A summer breeze
Whispers the secrets only spoken by the trees
Among the leaves
All the keys to your existence
are found amidst the pure tranquility
So far from all of your cares
Worlds away from your debts and despairs
Your soul’s true colors shining through
Shine on through
I need a smoke break from this crazy life
I need a smoke break from this city life
The madness breaks
Lost in the calm beside the lake
The time and space
All of the sudden unimportant
your fears and cares are dormant
