One of the most lighthearted songs on Paid in Exposure, “Smoke and Guns” tells of Nate having a night of fun with the woman of his dreams.
The music video for this song is a bright barrage of club lights: Nate dances and sings in front of them, takes a break to check his phone, then gets back to it...
Smoke and Guns Lyrics
[Chorus]
You're smoke and guns, you think I'm sick of it?
I wouldn't have it any other way
You're too much fun, think I can't handle it?
Left with no words and yet so much to say
[Verse 1]
Now in my darkest hour and not my brightest day
I find I'm calling you and telling you "I should not say"
I'm melting in your hands, go on, make your demands
You've got me slipping through your fingers like I'm made of sand
[Pre-Chorus]
When we hit the lights, you're fading out of sight
I feel your heartbeat, wrap yourself around me
Is it all for show? Because I'm good to go
So go ahead, I'll take it all
[Chorus]
You're smoke and guns, you think I'm sick of it?
I wouldn't have it any other way
You're too much fun, think I can't handle it?
Left with no words and yet so much to say
You wanted from me, some honesty
So honestly, I wanna feel you breathe
You're smoke and guns, you think I'm sick of it?
I wouldn't have it any other way
[Verse 2]
Now, as your lipstick smears by light of chandelier
I taste the tension and I'm begging, "Don't you disappear"
Not in my rightest mind, you tell me, "That's just fine"
Oh, what an evening, now you're leaving with my hands still tied
[Pre-Chorus]
When we hit the lights, you're fading out of sight
I feel your heartbeat, wrap yourself around me
Is it all for show? Because I'm good to go
So go ahead, I'll take it all
[Chorus]
You're smoke and guns, you think I'm sick of it?
I wouldn't have it any other way
You're too much fun, think I can't handle it?
Left with no words and yet so much to say
You wanted from me, some honesty
So honestly, I wanna feel you breathe
You're smoke and guns, you think I'm sick of it?
I wouldn't have it any other way
[Bridge]
(I wouldn't have it any other way)
Between your fingertips and running down your lips
You got me up against a wall
Is it all for show? Because I'm good to go
So go ahead, I'll take it all
[Chorus]
You're smoke and guns (Oh), you think I'm sick of it?
I wouldn't have it any other way
You're too much fun, think I can't handle it?
Left with no words and yet so much to say
You wanted from me, some honesty
So honestly, I wanna feel you breathe
You're smoke and guns, you think I'm sick of it?
I wouldn't have it any other way (You're smoke and guns)
