Rain Through Smoke

Neon slips down the window pane

I wear the dark like a borrowed name

Your silhouette fades in the glass

Slow like a secret I learned from the past

I move through the rain in a low-lit haze

Breathing out sparks through a smoky face

Don't ask me where the cold nights go

I keep my heart in the undertow

Street lights tremble in the silver brews

Every corner homes with the things I lose

My words drift soft, have gone in the night

Like a cigarette glow in the satellite light

I move through the rain in a low-lit haze

Freezing out sparks to a smoky face

Don't even ask me where the cold nights go

I keep my heart in the undertow

And if you hear me from far away

I'm only a shadow the city can save
