Lyrics

VERSE 1

 

Did I compromise

Or hide behind

A simple disguise

Within my mind

 

Do I want something

That I can’t have

She’s not her

Do I take another drag
 

 

VERSE 2
 

More than a handshake

‘Til death do us part

We’re a handful of bills

A weight on the heart

 

Do I want

What we can’t have

She burns hot

So I take another drag

 

 

CHORUS 1
 

And as we drift apart

In the winds of regret

The ship was sunk

Under my

Burnt cigarettes

Yea, drowning her

Under my

Burnt cigarettes

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

VERSE 3

 

Waiting to talk

And putting up walls

Shouting in the dark

No one stands tall

 

A complex disguise

Is all we have

I can’t read her mind

So I take another drag

 

 

CHORUS 2

And as we drift apart

In the winds of regret

The ship was sunk

Under my

Burnt cigarettes

Yea, drowning her

Under my

Burnt cigarettes

 

 

BRIDGE

We got lost in the storm

Going the long way around

With a heavy line to drag

We finally ran aground

 

 

CHORUS 3

And as we drift apart

In the winds of regret

The ship was sunk

Under my

Burnt cigarettes

Yea, drowning her

Under my

Burnt cigarettes
 

Yea, drowning her

Under my

Burnt cigarettes
