[Verse 1]

My baby's always high

My baby's always offering me hits

I think I wanna try him

I think he might be something I can fix

My baby texts and drives

To tell me that he missed me all day

He shows up on time

He's killing himself the slow way


[Chorus]

Nicotine, therapy

Arguing, quitting

Self-esteem, plummeting

When he's mean, he's just kidding

Cigarettes, side effects

The more sex, submitting

Check to check, kissing my neck

I'm thinkin' about leaving


[Verse 2]

My baby's always pissed

But every few weeks, hе's perfect

One day I feel dismissеd

And then I'm convinced we're a good fit

My baby insists

We'll make it work and have kids someday

Well, I just wish

He wasn't killing us the slow way


[Chorus]

With nicotine (nicotine), therapy (therapy)

We're always arguing, now he's quitting

My self-esteem (self-esteem), is plummeting (plummeting)

But when he's mean, he's just kidding

Cigarettes (cigarettes), side effects (side effects)

The more sex, submitting

He's check to check (check to check), kissing my neck (kissing my neck)

While I'm thinkin' about leaving


[Bridge]

My baby never leaves my side

My baby's always on my mind

My baby's stuck right on my lips

Just one more month, I swear I'll quit

My baby's so bad for my health

But I swear I can't help myself

If I don't go cold turkey today

I'm killing myself the slow way


[Chorus]

Nicotine (nicotine), therapy (therapy)

Arguing, quitting

Self-esteem (self-esteem), plummeting (plummeting)

But when he's mean, he's not kidding

Cigarettes (cigarettes), side effects (side effects)

The more sex, submitting

Check to check (check to check), kissin' my neck (kissin' my neck)

I've decided that I'm leaving
