about

This is an ode to the journey of the relationship between user and cigarette, the choir of voices, the dichotomy of emotions interacting and directing the vessel, the addict

lyrics

I can’t seem to stand tall hanging my arms with ease
When did I learn that I have to gratify demands and please
Now a rolled stick of cyanides’ my every need
I’m blowing benzene rings til my burning lungs fry and bleed

Oh quit your pitiful routine
Each circumstance on me you lean
I’ve prompted every social scene
How vindicated you have been
Consult me when you make a call
I’m not the one who made you crawl
Investment doesn’t want withdrawl
You cannot scale an endless wall

How did I do this to me
My nicotine affliction won’t let me breath
Deny everything
The agony to give up won’t let me win
Something tells me
I’ve got to learn some discipline
Maybe I’ll wait til tomorrow
Til I figure out where to begin

Instead of growth I’m clutching anxieties
I’m cradling desires to fill my insuffuciencies
Now there’s a pattern planning each tragedy
You see I’ve gotta wipe the slate clean to salvage my dignity

Oh quit your pitiful routine
Each circumstance on me you lean
I’ve prompted every social scene
How vindicated you have been
Consult me when you make a call
I’m not the one who made you crawl
Investment doesn’t want withdrawl
You cannot scale an endless wall

How did I do this to me
My blackening affliction won’t let me breath
Deny everything
The agony to give up won’t let me win
Something tells me
I’ve got to learn some discipline
Maybe I’ll wait til tomorrow
Til I figure out where to begin

Begin
