[Verse 1] I couldn’t take it, not one more day Had to burn it all, had to walk away That life, that name, that face in the mirror I struck the match just to see it clearer No goodbye, no second chance Just ashes where I used to stand I watched it fall, didn’t make a sound I had to burn my whole life down [Chorus] All that I remember is the smoke Burnin’ my eyes, makin’ me choke All that I remember is the smoke And nothin’ left to hold [Verse 2] No photos, no number saved No trace of the mess I made Mama’s voice—gone with the wind Daddy’s lies—I buried them in No home to miss, no bed to claim No letters signed with my old name Not even hate, not even pain Just smoke in my lungs, and walkin’ away [Chorus] All that I remember is the smoke Burnin’ my eyes, makin’ me choke All that I remember is the smoke And the silence when it broke [Bridge] Sometimes I wonder if they know But wonderin’ don’t mean I won’t go I lit the match, I watched it burn And I don’t regret a damn thing I learned [Final Chorus] All that I remember is the smoke Burnin’ my eyes, makin’ me choke All that I remember is the smoke And the girl I had to outgrow [Outro] I didn’t run I let it die Built a new name Out of fire and sky Now all I got is smoke And breathin’ it feels like hope
