this cigar, burns a hole

straight through my jeans

and
through your heart, as we

watch the ashes form
another scar, that i will

never show
but some how everybody

seems to know my demons
in all my efforts i’ve

commited treason
for chasing dreams that

are changing like the

seasons
make me feel so small,

but i’m so proud to tell

them all

that i’m a man now
i can drive a car
and i’m a drop out
i’m nobody so far
but i don’t mess with
cigarettes or alcohol
cos i’m the best there is
and they tell me all the

winners smoke cigars

this guitar, is pouring

melodies that burn
inside my heart, as the

sound is broken up
by passing cars, they

don’t know that i’m above
or that i’m swimming in

the middle of an ocean
i’m riding on a wave of

pure emotion
yeah, i’m drinkin up this

sea like it’s a potion
maybe it could lend me

wings, i’ll either float

or start to sink

cos i’m a man now
i can drive a car
and i’m a drop out
i’m nobody so far
but i don’t mess with
cigarettes and alcohol
cos i’m the best there is
and they tell me all the

winners play guitar

and i know i’ve never

been the kind
to let them get inside my

mind
you just got to see that

i need them on my side
i promise not to breathe

it in
or ever strum a chord

again
cos it hurts my lungs and

burns my tongue to know

that….

this cigar, burns a hole

straight through my jeans
and through her heart, as

we watch the ashes form
another scar, that i

could never show
yet somehow everybody

seems to know my demons
in all my efforts i’ve

commited treason
for chasing dreams that

are changing like the

seasons
i know that i’m so small

but i’m so proud to tell

you all

that i’m a man now
i can drive a car
and i’m a drop out
nobody so far
but i don’t mess with
cigarettes and alcohol
cos i’m the best there is
and they tell me all the

winners smoke cigars
