colby t. helms - smoke and flames lyrics

[verse 1]
breakin’ hearts like glass is something we all gotta do
in the end it comes back to bite
glass, it ain’t sharp until you bust it up
then after that it’s sharper than a knife
my buddy, he once told me that i am a fool
for leavin’ something that i love so well
though i didn’t know it, and my conscience wouldn’t show it
i cast myself into a living h+ll
you said i’d be flyin’, and you’d be down there cryin’
i’d be on top of the world, never comin’ down
but it only took a while before you got back your smile
meanwhile my plane’s crashed and hit the ground

[chorus]
i shouldn’t have played games
when i messed with smoke and flames
even though we’d get burned in the end
i should have worn gloves
when i gave up on your love
i got burned and there’s nothin’ left to mend

[verse 2]
i played in the church just to do the good lord’s work
but my hair was too long for that congregation
that’s just baptists for ya, they shake your hand and then ignore ya
i cut my hair, can i go to heaven now?
chances, they will come, and chances, they will go
but the chances i should take, only the good lord knows
my garden’s dug and planted but nothing seems to grow
the sun don’t shine down in this holler anymore
[chorus]
i shouldn’t have played games
when i messed with smoke and flames
even though we’d get burned in the end
i should have worn gloves
when i gave up on your love
i got burned and there’s nothin’ left to mend

[verse 3]
if i could only tell you how much that i love you
you’d probably tell me to find a good place to pray
but when my daddy was dyin’ and i ran in the woods cryin’
the lord didn’t have too much to say

[outro]
i got burned and there’s nothin’ left to mend
