My Morning Jacket - Smokin' From Shootin' Lyrics

Have you had enough excitement now? More than you ever did?
You never wanted to be treated like a woman
You maintained you was just a kid
Well at least you were of age my dear, these days kids they grow so fast
You never wanted to be committed to the present
You too busy be livin' in the past

Who then was your savior? Who then was your friend?
Who is now committed to the present? Is it someone that exists?
What is life in god? A perfect vision of the self?
I always thought we was a dealing with one thing
Now we are dealing with something else

Do you see my smokin' guns?
They're smokin' from shootin', smokin' from shootin'
Smokin' from shooting at nothing dear
Do you live your life on the run?
Losing out on lovin'
Asking for nothing
Running from something that isn't there

Who makes my decisions? Who reads all your thoughts?
What makes us how we are?
Faith can't prove what science won't resolve
Kumbaya my lord, c'mon row your boat ashore
The river's long, it is cold
It chills the body but not the soul

Do you see my smokin' guns?
They're smokin' from shootin', smokin' from shootin'
Smokin' from shooting at nothing dear
Do you live your life on the run?
Losing out on lovin'
Asking for nothing
Running from something that isn't there

Distance-coming or going? C'mon
What are you waiting for?
Distance-growing or closing in on?
Anyway?

Have you had enough excitement now? More than you ever did?
You never wanted to be treated like a woman
You maintained you was just a kid
Well at least you were of age my dear, these days kids they grow so fast
You never wanted to be committed to the present
You too busy be livin' in the past

Who then was your savior? Who then was your friend?
Who is now committed to the present? Is it someone that exists?
What is life in god? A perfect vision of the self?
I always thought we was a dealing with one thing
Now we are dealing with something else

Do you see my smokin' guns?
They're smokin' from shootin', smokin' from shootin'
Smokin' from shooting at nothing dear
Do you live your life on the run?
Losing out on lovin'
Asking for nothing
Running from something that isn't there

Who makes my decisions? Who reads all your thoughts?
What makes us how we are?
Faith can't prove what science won't resolve
Kumbaya my lord, c'mon row your boat ashore
The river's long, it is cold
It chills the body but not the soul

Do you see my smokin' guns?
They're smokin' from shootin', smokin' from shootin'
Smokin' from shooting at nothing dear
Do you live your life on the run?
Losing out on lovin'
Asking for nothing
Running from something that isn't there

Distance-coming or going? C'mon
What are you waiting for?
Distance-growing or closing in on?
Anyway?
