I light an incense stick to pray
The smoke spirals ascending slow
O I have nothing left to say
I dread my nights and dread my days
Fly away with the smoke that sways
But there's nowhere left to go
I light an incense stick to pray
The smoke spirals ascending slow
I turn this way I turn that way
There's forever left to go.
