Nothing Out Of Something

XXX
Smoking my cigarette
I feel it fill my lungs so don't smoke too fast
And  your life will slowly burn
Smoking my cigarette
To make nothing out of something
I might soon regret
And watching it burn

I draw the flame into my heart
And hope it burns away the pain
The ashes fall away
Just 16 drags 'til I know

The river flows below the smoke
Into the endless cold abyss
I watch it burning in the distance 'til  it comes

xxx

Holding it to my lips
And drinking it in like droughts
Of empty promises
Just 15 drags 'til I know

I'm filling my emptiness
Smoking my cigarette
I watch it smoulder ever closer 'til it comes

xxx

You are my one regret
You are my cigarette
That I could never quit
Just 14 drags 'til I know

xxx
And watching it burn my life away
And watching it burn my life away
And watching it burn my life away
Just 13 drags and its gone
