...I’m still sucking on a cigarette...

Everything is "kind of dying"..

Cause.. we're only really "kind of trying"..

I'll swear I'm in the best shape..

but still suck on a cigarette..

And mere kids!.. they vape..

but don't see tar as a threat..

Saying, "Cancer is rare,

and you can slip by a scare.."

but all of a sudden it takes you..

And all of a sudden you care..

..but I'm still sucking on a cigarette..

and I can't run, for my life..

but I can lift some bulky steel..

convinced, I'll be alright..

as long as shit doesn't get real..

Pump one poison in your lungs..

Pump one poison in your veins..

cause chemo is a witch..

but no pain no gain..

..and I'm still sucking on a cigarette..

cause I don't need to show my ID..

but preferred nic anyways..

And yellow was never my colour..

but alkaline won't wash it away..

...yet I'm still sucking on a cigarette..

cause I seek peace of mind,

and nowadays it's hard to come by..

but relief and a lit Marlboro,

I know I won't change tomorrow..

...cause I'm still sucking on a cigarette...

Cause I know people are clean,

and I know people rely on machines..

And I rely on nic..

I'm not dumb, but I am, I'll admit..

cause.. everything is kind of dying..

but I need a cigarette to keep kinda trying..
