Cigarette

by @spencer-carlson

There's a color in my head, it wont leave me alone As the peacock feathers, she's got no where to go So I just smoked her down, left a funny taste in my mouth No longer can I breathe in, I'll have to do without This lung And this heart Is filled With tar He said he was your lover, with real debonair Filled you up with warm words, that weren't really there His hand was on yours, felt like a shackle Frozen straight to the heart, he felt so cold His heart and his mouth Were filled With his own doubt I swear to god I'm trying But my lungs can barely move Trying to breathe you in But there isn't much space
