[Verse 1]

They say denial's a river

Guess I'm a real good swimmer

Now that he's out of the picture

I got some lonely to drown

I've heard that heartbreak's a killer

Should come with a warning sticker

Burns a girl down to the filter

'Til her head's in the clouds, lucky for me right now


[Chorus]

Drunk cigs don't count

And he ain't really gone

The sky ain't black, this ain't a brand-new pack

I'm working on

I ain't blowing smoke

Saying my heart ain't broke

Didn't order another round to burn your memory down

And drunk cigs don't count


[Verse 2]

Neither do last-call calls

Or 2 a.m. tears that fall

In mirrors and bathroom stalls

I swear I'm telling the truth, I'm so over you


[Chorus]

And drunk cigs don't count

And hе ain't really gone

The sky ain't black, this ain't a brand-nеw pack

I'm working on

I ain't blowing smoke

Saying my heart ain't broke

Didn't order another round to burn your memory down

And drunk cigs don't count


[Instrumental Break]


[Chorus]

Drunk cigs don't count

And he ain't really gone

The sky ain't black, this ain't a brand-new pack

I'm working on

I ain't blowing smoke (I ain't blowing smoke, no, no)

Saying my heart ain't broke

Didn't order another round to burn your memory down

And drunk cigs don't count


[Outro]

When you're lonely, when you're sad (Mhm)

It's a habit you say you don't have (Mm-mm)

When you're drinking, looking back

Go on and strike that match

Drunk cigs don't count
