[Chorus]

Watchin' cigarettes burn out

'Til all the neon gets turned out

I was so on fire for you, it hurts how

Fast a cigarette can burn out

[Verse 1]

Just watchin' rivers run

Down the side of my bottle

Almost like it's cryin' my tears

Had the world on a string

And then I lost everything

And that's how I wound up here

[Chorus]

Watchin' cigarettes burn out

'Til all the neon gets turned out

There's nothin' left but empty glasses now

It's all flashes now

Of a smoky memory that ain't nothin' but ashes

In the low lights

These done-me-wrong songs hit me so right

I was so on fire for you, it hurts how

Fast a cigarette can burn out

[Verse 2]

If you put your hands on the flame

You got no right to complain

'Cause you know it's gonna leave a mark

When the glow comes to an end

Like scattered embers in the wind

Leaves you lookin' for a brand new spark

Watchin' cigarettes burn out

[Bridge]

No, with every hit, I'm gonna quit

But who am I kiddin'? I just can't put you down

So I keep hangin' around

[Chorus]

Watchin' cigarettes burn out

'Til all the neon gets turned out

There's nothin' left but empty glasses now

It's all flashes now

Of a smoky memory that ain't nothin' but ashes

In the low lights

These done-me-wrong songs hit me so right

I was so on fire for you, it hurts how

Fast a cigarette can burn out

I was so on fire for you, it hurts how

Fast a cigarette can burn out

[Outro]

Woo
