Cigarettes
See the smoke fill the air
 Hurting us and you
 Why must something so bad, be so good to you?
 Endless lives lost to the smoke you inhale
 Yet they smile form above
 Laughing at your pain
 Swimming in the money
 Which kills every day?
 Don’t you see, they’re winning while innocence suffers from below
 How can I speak?
 When I choke on smoke?
 Your letting them decide
 Letting your heart die
 Lungs collide
 I see people I love, smoking their lives away
 Their breath faint
 Their lives slowing fading
 Does anybody hear what I say?!
 Why buy something that kills?
 Not only is it hurting them but
 Your mother, father, siblings
 Imagine them holding the cigarette
 Now there gone
 My family smokes and ignores my warnings
 No matter where I go
 They are there
 Up the stairs I go
 Even down below
 I breathe the air you taint
 Like bad breath in the morning
 My lungs dissolving
 Inside me
 Your smoke clouds my vision
 Bring back the burning lives lost
 The burning sensation never leaves my eyes
 Floating around in me
 In a strange abyss
 You haunt my health
 Disease spreads through my lungs
 Rise again
 May I never escape cigarettes?
