I feel it’s about a beautiful girl back home. The type all the boys like. She falls in love or gets into a relationship with a man who drinks too much, abuses her in all the ways. Eventually she dies somehow along the way. She was a smoke show extremely beautiful and mesmerizing and everyone likes to watch it but just like smoke it fades away after the fire burns out. It’s a sad song to me. It reminds me of the years of my own wasted youth being with a man who abused me in every way. I barley got out alive. ♥️
