lyrics

LIKE A CIGARETTE

Pop is such a dirty word
Love is feeling more absurd
Joy is slipping from my reach
Peace – am leaving not my scene

Have a thought that’s like a cigarette
It follows when I’m upset
Is this my distraction? Distraction? Distract oh-oh
Got a bomb I cannot unset
Don't want it to blow up on me
Up on me

Youth is wasted on the young
Pain, an overrated charm
Sweetness gets you out the door
Loveless – I’ll see you on the floor

Have a thought that’s like a cigarette
It follows when I’m upset
Is this my distraction? Distraction? Distract oh-oh
Got a bomb I cannot unset
Don't want it to blow up on me
Up on me

Faces we could know
If only they would show
how everything is beautiful
Shame it's not forever
Shame it's not forever
Shame it's not forever
Shame it's not forever
Shame it's not forever
Shame it's not forever
