Cigarette

Give me a ruse, give me a need
such trifling desires are reserved for the weak
I'll be weak for you
I'll sell my soul to feel you in me

You're an enigma
your Venomous leaves, your putrid embrace
your beacon ignites glowing like fire
revitalizing
rivet me in your bluish gray mist
you bring order to chaos
you spring hope in devastated hearts
sweet soldier of death you! Never leave me
your tests I will stand, your torture I can't resist

My best friend
my worst enemy
innocence in disguise
humble and kind
unrelenting misery cloaked in ecstasy
lay upon me, euphoria I so crave for
you will be the death of me
and in my death you shall become eternal

The instrument of self destruction
you scream in silent agony
your horrid melodies pamper my senses
you've gripped me so, I'm addicted to your madness-
-this hunger you chain me to
A slave to you forever, release me never
yours truly
