As the Mist Leaves No Scar - A song inspired by an unravelling of Leonard Cohen's conceit.

Leonard Cohen's conceit.

Verse 1
You set off a bomb and you got clean away
A suicide bomber who lived out her days
And oh how the mist can leave a scar

Verse 2
Innocent accidents happen each day
A child with a gun blows her daddy away
And oh how the mist can leave a scar
And oh how I wonder who you are

Chorus
On with this carousel, on with the show
On with the daily routine
On with these promises and the belief
That you are what you seem

Homeless and doe-eyed you asked me to stay
A host with a parasite eaten away
And oh how the mist can leave a scar

Collateral damage caught up in the fray
An innocent bystander caught in the way
And oh how the mist can leave scar
And oh how I wonder who you are 

(Chorus)

(Verse shape guitar solo)

(Chorus)

(Verse 1)
+
And oh how I wonder who you are 
And oh how I wonder who you are
