My First Steemit Open Mic Week 90, Yeah!!! "Smoke" (Original)

Hey Dtube and Steemit Fam!!

Excited to be posting my first open mic vid today! There's so much incredible talent and so many f%*$ing cool peeps in this community and I knew from the jump I wanted to be a part of it! If you happen upon this vid, thanks so much for watching!

This particular jam is about a failing relationship- a sad and chaotic time in my life. It's crazy how you can go from loving someone so deeply to arriving in a place in a relationship where you actually want to hurt that person. It's crazy how much pain words can cause. I think the lyrics pretty much sum it up.

~Smoke~

You and I we stare across a hazy battlefield of grey
As words continue to rise in the air of things
That we never believed we’d ever speak
And then they fall, cutting through the flesh and bone and straight to soul
And all the secret places only we would know
Nothing hurts quite like wounds from your love

You can’t see that there’s smoke in the kitchen
There smoke in the kitchen
There a fire thats been a burning
But you can’t see that there’s smoke in the kitchen

We look away, unable any further to view the pain
And darkness brought on by our own youthful mistakes
Hindsight 20/20 looking back
Or is it too late? We’re both running on fumes that could set us a blaze
And burn this house down to the ground and seal us in graves
Dusted in the ashes of our love

But you can’t see that there’s smoke in the kitchen
There smoke in the kitchen
There a fire thats been a burning
But you can’t see that there’s smoke in the kitchen

You can’t see it I can’t believe it
Were going down in flames
Oh here we go
You can’t see it I can’t believe it
Were going down in flames
Oh here we go
