Pacifier

Sneaking out to smoke all night,
smoldering leaves burning bright,
It seems like I'm trying to compensate,
For something I don't have to demonstrate,
Nicotine and tobacco leaves,
Smoking till my throat is dry,
Deep down my soul believes,
That I' way to old to cry,
But now I see it's all the same,
Same as sucking on a pacifier,

As a child I'd cry and suck,
As a man, I smoke and suck it up,
It looks different but it's not,
Still sucking to make the pain subdue,
But nothing changes nothing's new,
All I know is I'm still a child,
Still sucking on my pacifier,

Tar filled lungs and yellow teeth,
Can't run and barely sleep,
Always thinking bout that stick,
Smoke sliding over my tongue nice and slick
From Turkish blend to southern style,
My eyes start to close for a while,
I feel so calm, I feel so good,
This is the way that it should,
Just like sucking on the pacifier
Makes me calm and cools the fire,

Now a slave to sucking smoke,
My head a pain when I don't,
All I want is to light a fire,
Straight on the end of my pacifier,
Suck it till it's only a butt,
Burns my lungs like a cut,
I see my end oh so clear,
I see my death getting near,
but all I care is for my smoke,
Suck it down and strongly choke,
Into my lungs and out my mouth,
Just like my pacifier,
