Your love's a cigarette
Burning at the tip
It tastes like smoke and fire
Sliding through my lips
And everything seems better
But this feeling that I get
It doesn't mean I'm living
It just means it hasn't killed me yet
I breathe you in and hold it
Trying not to choke
I know it isn't good for me
But I take another toke
And everything seems better
But this feeling that I get
It doesn't mean I'm living
It just means it hasn't killed me yet
And you mark me
With these shadows on my teeth
Yeah you mark me
But you give me sweet relief
Yeah you mark me
With these stains under my nails
Every time I put you down
I know I'm gonna fail
Your love is nicotine
Seeping through my skin
Someday I'm gonna quit you
But I couldn't tell you when
And everything seems better
But this feeling that I get
It doesn't mean I'm living
It just means it hasn't killed me yet
