Your love is like a cigarette
On my mind when I first wake up
On my mind when my world is too caught up
On my mind all the time, even their smell
Quitting would only be hell
Addicted from the start
Both bad for my heart
Cigarettes leave burn holes in my bed
The place you once lead
Light on my lips, but nothing like his
Inhale the smoke
But still, I inhaled you most
Bad for my lungs
Both my favorite on my tongue
But you still make me catch my breath
Ever since day one

You like my pretty words wrote down on paper all for you
But do you like my thoughts and words that come out of my mouth instead?
You think I have a pretty face
Do you think I have a pretty heart?
You tell me to head east, then you start to head west
I try to follow but the path gets too dark
Did you turn off the light?
Left me cold and with a mark
I searched and searched but I still could not see
Was your back turned to me?
You ran and ran and dropped to her feet
"I love you to the moon and back" you said
"I love you too" she replied
But really she lied
How could you really love another when your heart is made of thunder
2 weeks later they were outside
"Look at the moon and how it only shines for you"
"I don't really like the night sky" was all she replied

We go back and forth
We're down south then we're up north
My scale's all out of wack
Please don't leave, please come back?

Don't you know balance is what I need most?
You had my heart, it's only host
I love you so much, won't you give me a dose?
With you as mine I'd have all reason to boast

I adore you so and I know I'm no good with words
But I'll try and do better if you give me another turn
When it get's too hot and they're afraid to burn
They fly up north and never miss a turn
When they get too cold and miss the sun
Back down south is where they return
With you I am just like the birds
Only my missing you is much more stern
