Mirrors & Smoke

Album: Good Monsters

Jars Of Clay- Mirrors & Smoke

I'm feeling older than my years

I'm feeling pain inside my chest

It's love that keeps me silent

It's my silence that you detest

Rivers flow into the oceans

And oceans never fill

I want to kiss your lips, but I know I never will

Love's a hard decision to risk impending choke

But love will keep you wishing

And my heart will keep me broke

I blew flowers, gave you candy to even out the guilt

I sent you greeting cards with messages that I could never write

Rivers flow into the oceans

And oceans never fill

I want to let you know me

But I know I never will

Love's a contradiction

Many mirrors and smoke

Love will keep you wishing

My heart makes me broke

You will always want me

And I'll always want to leave

Even though I cut your wounds

You still deny they're real

Rivers flow into the ocean

Oceans never fill

I want to lay my life down

But I know you never will

Love's a strange condition

With all the doubts it can invoke

Your love keeps me wishing

And my heart keeps me broke

Baby, don't you cry, 'cause I got it all figured out
