Like a flame to a cigarette,
You set my body on fire
And it slowly burns,
Releasing the smoke that is my desire.
Like the nicotine,
I crave you almost hourly
And you make me insane
When you refuse to give me my proper dose.
I want to feel your lips
Dance around the filter
And I want your lungs to
Inhale my pleasure.
But like all my cigarettes,
You've burned out
And have left me to go madly
Into withdrawal.

Like a flame to a cigarette,
You set my body on fire
And it slowly burns,
Releasing the smoke that is my desire.
Like the nicotine,
I crave you almost hourly
And you make me insane
When you refuse to give me my proper dose.
I want to feel your lips
Dance around the filter
And I want your lungs to
Inhale my pleasure.
But like all my cigarettes,
You've burned out
And have left me to go madly
Into withdrawal.
