Lyrics to "Smoking Charcoal" by Violent Jokes:


Smoking Charcoal

Silent Charcoal
Smoking Disgrace
Silent Revenge

Are you sure you woke up this morning?
Are you sure you are not yet dreaming?
Are you sure this nausea now will fix itself
Or has daytime lost its strength?
Disguising shame won’t cure you,
Folding cards at this point can’t save you.
Are you sure that you smile won’t leave you
Now your days are running. Short.

All religions’ truth is false now
All political games are over
Can you wander in the dark yet
Or has nighttime lost its strength?
All political games are broken
All religions’ truth is on trial
Night pulls up its gown now that
Sins atone in burning fire

 
Creeping fiends
Reveal your hidden
Bleeding wounds
Contain their sorrow
Peaceful guns
Shoot up their pretty
Violent Jokes
Reveal your secret

 

Silent Charcoal
Smoking Disgrace
Silent Revenge

Disguising shame won’t cure you
All religions’ truth is on trial
Are you sure that your smile won’t leave you 
Sins atone in burning fire.
