Cigarette

Saw you by the soda machine

Summer dress and worn-out jeans

Dropped my keys, looked like a fool

You just laughed and called me cool

My friends said “man, don’t stare”

Too late, I was already there

Heart went running down the street

Tripping over both my feet

Oh no

There she goes

Everybody knows

I’m done for

You’re my first cigarette

Bad idea I won’t forget

Burning holes right through my chest

And I kinda like it best

You’re my first little disaster

Heart beats faster, faster, faster

Everybody thinks I’m sick

Maybe I am

Just a little bit

Wrote your name across my hand

Like some teenage garage band

Tried to play it nice and smooth

Couldn’t even tie my shoes

Spent all night learning songs

Hoping you’d come sing along

You never knew

But every line was written for you

Oh no

There she goes

Everybody knows

I’m done for

You’re my first cigarette

Bad idea I won’t forget

Burning holes right through my chest

And I kinda like it best

You’re my first little disaster

Heart beats faster, faster, faster

Everybody thinks I’m sick

Maybe I am

Just a little bit

The radio was way too loud

Your laugh cut through the crowd

And for a second

I swear the whole world stopped

Just enough

You’re my first cigarette

My favorite bad decision yet

Burning bright inside my head

Keeping me awake instead

You’re my first little disaster

Heart beats faster, faster, faster

If this kills me, that’s okay

At least I got your name

Stuck in my brain
