The Smoking Pose Lyrics
With the color in your eyes ablaze
Sleeping but awake
Desperately, you’re searching for remains
To feed that part of you
Crawling and scratching
Sifting through the ashes
Your fingers are blistered
Right down to the filter
The blistering that carved that shape in you all night
With your chin down to your chest
Speech drooling out in a mesh
Of baritone slurs, incomprehensible, unaware of what you mean
Of baritone slurs, incomprehensible, unaware of what you seem
Your eyes were just blatant hints at your elevation
Allowing the two of you, completion
Singe your throat when the door is open
Beneath the smoke I can see that,
I can see that you have come alive again
Sleeping but awake
Desperately, you’re searching for remains
To feed that part of you
Crawling and scratching
Sifting through the ashes
Your fingers are blistered
Right down to the filter
The blistering that carved that shape in you all night
Speech drooling out in a mesh
Of baritone slurs, incomprehensible, unaware of what you mean
Of baritone slurs, incomprehensible, unaware of what you seem
Allowing the two of you, completion
Beneath the smoke I can see that,
I can see that you have come alive again

"your eyes were just blatant hints at your elevation"
what happens to you when you smoke weed. never heard a song written about this before. i like it. clever and original.
I think when listening to these lyrics, one can tie many of the descriptive phrases could be a reference to smoking weed/being stoned.

"eyes ablaze", "sleeping but awake" "chin down to you chest", maybe as if taking a bong rip or just being really relaxed. "Your eyes were just blatant hints at your elevation" "singe your throat" "beneath the smoke"

But I think without the title as a clue, the song could be interpreted as describing a scored relationship, perhaps a self-destructive but very intense one.

Being...
Being stoned or high isn't like this for everyone though, this is just relecting his personal experience with it at that moment in his life, in my opinion.
