I followed your laughter
Through the ruins of the games that you played
Making love to disaster
No, she'd never turn you away
And I saw you go dancing
Through the gates of your blue paradise
Sit down at the table
Take just one last roll of the dice
Holy smoke
The birds all did choke
The people lay down and took turns telling jokes
Holy smoke
The morning got broke
The sun filled the room but the eyes never woke
I saw you go diving
Down into that dreamers abyss
Plunge into the silent
Dead pool of your blood's only wish
And I saw you go under
That old nothing look in your eyes
Sink into the wonder
Down into the dark one last time
Holy smoke
The birds all did choke
The people lay down and took turns telling jokes
Holy smoke
The morning got broke
The sun filled the room but the eyes never woke
I followed your laughter
Through the ruins of the games that you played
