Smoke

Category: By Crazy Sam
Performed by Natalie Imbruglia
Written by Natalie Imbruglia and Matt Bronleewee
Album: Left Of The Middle
Music on RCA Records


Smoke was the fourth and final single from Natalie Imbruglia's debut album. It was released on 11 October 1998 and contained a number of remixes. Smoke is the sad tale of a woman trying to accept the abuse she and her mother endured when she was a child. Lyrical imagery is mighty, with phrases like "bleeding is breathing" and "you're hiding underneath the smoke in the room." The single reached #5 in the UK but just missed the top 40 in Australia, peaking at 42.

My lullaby,hung out to dry
What's up with that
It's over
Where are you dad
Mum's lookin' sad
What's up with that
It's dark in here
Why bleeding is breathing
You're hiding , underneath the smoke in the room
Try , bleeding is believing
I used to
My mouth is dry
Forgot how to cry
What's up with that
You're hurting me
I'm running fast
Can't hide the past
What's up with that
You're pushing me
Why , bleeding is breathing
You're hiding , underneath the smoke in the room
Try , bleeding is believing
I used to
I used to
Why , bleeding is breathing
You're hiding , underneath the smoke in the room
Try , bleeding is breathing
I saw you crawling on the floor
Why , bleeding is breathing
You're hiding , underneath the smoke in the room
Try , bleeding is breathing
I saw you crawling to the door
Why , bleeding is breathing
You're hiding , underneath the smoke in the room
Try , bleeding is breathing
I saw you falling on the floor
