You are the cigarette I can’t put down An ache held deep in my chest After I’m done I hate the taste in my mouth You burn hot and you burn out fast Never takes long for **** to go south I swear each time will be the last The next day I buy another pack I light you up and **** you down I look in the mirror; it starts to crack Others notice I’m dropping weight 30 lbs in 2 months, a strict diet of devotion and hate My grandma tells me I look great What’s my secret? Cigarettes and you; keep washing me away I’m burning up too fast too drown Still I can’t put you or this ******* cigarette down

Can’t Quit
You are the cigarette I can’t put down An ache held deep in my chest After I’m done I hate the taste in my mouth You burn hot and you burn out fast Never takes long for **** to go south I swear each time will be the last The next day I buy another pack I light you up and **** you down I look in the mirror; it starts to crack Others notice I’m dropping weight 30 lbs in 2 months, a strict diet of devotion and hate My grandma tells me I look great What’s my secret? Cigarettes and you; keep washing me away I’m burning up too fast too drown Still I can’t put you or this ******* cigarette down
