In the morning before the Weight of the day struck I almost wanted you here to stay But I got a headache And you get impatient You're running while I hit the breaks If these cigarettes burn my chest Then maybe I'll cut out the rest Can't add another fire to the flame Keep me in your mind I swear Maybe someday I'll get there But for now I'm stuck wasting away You made up your mind While you dig into mine And I'm scared you won't like what I think Is my misdirection Clouding your vision I never meant to lead you this way If these cigarettes burn my chest Then maybe I'll cut out the rest Can't add another fire to the flame Keep me in your mind I swear Maybe someday I'll get there But for now I'm stuck wasting away Ooooo ... If these cigarettes burn my chest Then maybe I'll cut out the rest Can't add another fire to the flame Keep me in your mind I swear Maybe someday I'll get there But for now I'm stuck wasting away
