I bought a pack of cigarettes today Lit one up and took a nice drag My best friend told me to beware of addiction But I laughed and told her that I wasn't addicted to anything But he did make my head spin and my palms sweat And his voice played over and over in my head like a record on repeat   And I felt this morning's toast rolling around in my stomach when we were apart And I craved every inch of his presence at every moment of every day And I realized that I'd lost it

Addicted
I bought a pack of cigarettes today Lit one up and took a nice drag My best friend told me to beware of addiction But I laughed and told her that I wasn't addicted to anything But he did make my head spin and my palms sweat And his voice played over and over in my head like a record on repeat   And I felt this morning's toast rolling around in my stomach when we were apart And I craved every inch of his presence at every moment of every day And I realized that I'd lost it
