Cigarettes Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Hey, how you feeling?
Kinda down, but I'm dealing
You know I'll be fine
It's alright, it takes time
Hey, what you up to?
Been a while and I miss you
And this pain, it won't quit
And I can't get past it

[Pre-Chorus]
You said that you would be mine
You swore that you would never lie
So I let you walk inside
Soldier, start a fire
But you wanted to be free
'Cause I guess it's what you need
Now I can barely breathe
'Cause I think you've broken me

[Chorus]
Got a couple cigarettes in a dirty ashtray
Overflowing with regrets and the things I didn't say
What I've become when all's said and done
Just a couple cigarettes in a dirty ashtray
Got me feeling like a mess, wanna wash it all away
Pick up the pieces, but I can't find the reasons today

[Verse 2]
So, I've been thinking
Wondering if you've been thinking
About me, about us
About lies, about trust
No, let's not go there
Don't wanna fight, I know it's unfair
I just want some closure
Now that we're over

[Pre-Chorus]
You said that you would be mine
You swore that you would never lie
So I let you walk inside
Soldier, start a fire
But you wanted to be free
'Cause I guess it's what you need
Now I can barely breathe
'Cause I think you've broken me

[Chorus]
Got a couple cigarettes in a dirty ashtray
Overflowing with regrets and the things I didn't say
What I've become when all's said and done
Just a couple cigarettes in a dirty ashtray
Got me feeling like a mess, wanna wash it all away
Pick up the pieces, but I can't find the reasons today

[Post-Chorus]
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Away

[Bridge]
You said that you would be mine
You swore that you would never lie
So I let you walk inside
Soldier, start a fire
But you wanted to be free
'Cause I guess it's what you need
Now I can barely breathe
'Cause I think you've broken me

[Chorus]
Got a couple cigarettes in a dirty ashtray
Overflowing with regrets and the things I didn't say
What I've become when all's said and done
Just a couple cigarettes in a dirty ashtray
Got me feeling like a mess, wanna wash it all away
Pick up the pieces, but I can't find the reasons today

[Outro]
(La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la)
Just a couple cigarettes, baby
Got a couple cigarettes, baby
(La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la)
Got a couple cigarettes in a dirty ashtray, oh no
(La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la)
(La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la)
