Iron & Wine - Cinder And Smoke Lyrics
Give me your hand
The dog in the garden row is covered in mud
And dragging your mother's clothes
Cinder and smoke
The snake in the basement
The farmhouse is burning down
Give me your hand
And take what you will tonight, I'll give it as fast
And high as the flame will rise
Cinder and smoke
Some whispers around the trees
The juniper bends
As if you were listening
Your mother is drunk as all the firemen shake
A photo from father's arms
Cinder and smoke
You'll ask me to pray for rain
With ash in your mouth
You'll ask it to burn again

Iron & Wine Cinder And Smoke Comments
First comment of the 2020s and...
I miss the 2000s :(
I miss my life from back then.
Nothing to do but go forward I reckon. Onwards and upwards. Anyone recommendations on a commune?
I was out with 4 friends one night. We were coming back to hostel. An hour's journey from the city to the college stop. It's so late at night and we managed to get into the last bus to the stop at around 10. Rain clouds looked lovingly threatening. And within a few minutes of our bus starting the pouring began. In the dark dark night, with our bus on the road, and only occasional Sparks of magical lightning for company....this song...that rain...that journey. It was one of the most phenomenal nights of my life. And for that I thank this song.
Whoever's reading ...may life be as kind to you as it has been to me.
Peace.
Te quiero mucho corazón 🌻
Take what you want tonight. I'll give it as fast... Fast as the flame will rise
Donde sea que estés, ojalá ojala estes bien mujer.
Everything is in order around me now. Life is good. After Unplugging things get messy again
Whenever I listen to this song it is as if everything around me is very calm and in alignment, especially on a tough day. So grateful that I discovered this song.
Iron and wine has bunch of tunes like that. You are in for a treat.
@Jules Gilmour Yes!! They are my favorite. Also, you should listen to Konoba- On our knees. You might like it :)
@Sneha Dewanji me no likey 🙊
This is an amazing song. I love IAW's dada-ish lyrics and haunting instrumentals... It's one of the best things I ever heard!
அருமையான பாடல்.மிகவும் இனிமை...

When I hear this song it makes me think about life is strange

Beautiful song, though I do not understand the end of the text... <3
Original song is deleted and we are here
Why was the original one gone :(
Hüseyin Akçalı yup
strange, similiar things up there over the mountain..
The art style is impressionism and you're right its beautiful. Just like the song. I think his girl friend did it.
This one take me high and sad
I love ...❤
what art style is the album picture in... I wanna see more art like that
Azure Tides actually, this is not the "original" art style. I had to Change a few things to the picture look prettier
It’s similar to Van Gogh or Cezanne. Impressionism uses daubes of color to express shapes. I believe that is what it’s called
what Katie said...it's impressionism
HADI HASAN :D

Nasıl geldin buralara 😊
this song really makes no sense which is irritating. it sounds so great. its so well done. you try to find meaning. and afterer hearing it again and again, it gets more and more dumb. "give me your hand. the dog in the garden row is covered in mud. and dragging your mothers clothes. cinder and smoke, the snake in the basement found the juniper shade . the farmhouse is burning down. give me your hand, take what you will tonight. ill give it as fast and high as the flame will rise. cinder and smoke, " ok, kinda you can make it make senes. but then "the whispers around the trees, the juniper bends as if you were listening.:.." WHAT?????? " give me your hand, your mother is drunk as all. the fireman shakes the photo from your fathers hand, cinder and smoke. you ask me to pray for rain. with ash in you mouth you ask it to burn again..." WHAT. its not deep . it just ends up being dumb. then you hum for an extra so unnecessary two minutes when you should have ended it after the last verse. i like the song so much at first. then less and less.
It's poetry. You can interpret it anyway you like and that would be your canon meaning.
I do not know who said that no one is commenting or explaining the lyrics and such. This is art and as with every piece of art, each individual has their own perception, their own idea. You have to goddamn feel what you want to feel and think what you want to think. Art is subjective ffs. Each to their own interpretation.
I think the song relates to a mother dying in flames, the dog tries to drag her out of the fire, the whispers around the tree is foreshadowing of things to come, the father is shocked holding her photo and praying for rain. Just my interpretation.
Just let your soul to feel the song ,it doesn't have to make sense for your mind
This song is actually kinda depressing.
Thanks 😅 I never would have gotten "juniper"
