From A Lighter to a Cigarette
Everytime he takes us out I hope I’ll get to see you,
And get a break from the dark loneliness of his wool pocket.
He uses me to light you, and slowly you will die,
Only I can hear you call out, only I can hear you cry.
Every time it’s someone new, fourteen are already gone.
I know there are seven others, but to you my heart belongs.
I feel like a killer, and I pray that you’ll forgive me,
I swear, it’s all his fault, it’s entrapment, don’t you see?
With this ash on my hands, myself I can never be.
I’m sorry lover, please, I beg, come back to me.
I wait with a cloud hanging over my head, and cry myself to sleep,
Nobody else ever cared for me, do you lie awake and weep?
But it’s okay I have to always remember in my mind,
Because I too will run out of fluid, and you my heart will find.
