Cigarette

The smoke from your cigarette

Floats like a phantom toward me,

Choking me with its luring poison.

I want you to stop.

You think you know everything

But you're not as smart as you think you are.

You're not invincible, like you're always pretending.

You have the power to destroy yourself

And in the end, I'll be the one that was burned

By your cigarette.

You hook me in until I'm ill

And I defend you every time.

I'm rationalizing you

And everything you do

And I don't wanna do it anymore

But I will, 'cause I don't know how to quit.

You think you're invincible but you're not.

You lure me into you

Just so I'll get burned when you go away.
