[Verse 1]

The first was on a morning when I had to face the day

It was a form of meditation and that makes it feel okay

Oxygen tastes pretty great, but it's the only thing I breathe

Until I need to hideaway behind a cloud of nicotine


[Chorus]

This is the final box of cigarettes that I will ever smoke

Twenty sticks to happiness, our stylish deaths approach

Yeah, we’ll choke, but we're still waiting for the next

Emergency dose of sweet, sweep you off your feet

The slowest suicide you've ever seen

Another tasty dopamine daydream


[Verse 2]

Existential dread forebodes a boring afternoon

I had to find something to get me through and turned to number two

A TV dinner’s better with appropriate desert

I lit the fourth one off the ending of the third before it burned


[Chorus]

This is the final box of cigarettes that I will ever smoke

Twenty sticks to happiness, our stylish deaths approach

Yeah, we'll choke, but we're still waiting for the next

Emergency dose of sweet, sweep you off your feet

In every store on every street

The slowest suicide you've ever seen

Another tasty dopamine daydream


[Bridge]

We all already know we might be dead when you get old

Leave me twenty Marlboro Gold

Propped up against a fresh tombstone

And I want to be alive when I'm a hundred twenty-five

Getting wheeled out to the gates

'Cause it's finally the time

You've been waiting all your life

Just to say it and be right

Hope there’s plenty cigarettes up in the afterlife


[Chorus]

Or this’ll be the final box of cigarettes that I will ever smoke

Twenty breaths to nothingness and dying on your own

Yeah, we'll choke, but we’re still waiting for the next

Emergency dose of sweet, sweep you off your two left feet

This is the final box of cigarettes that I will ever smoke

Twenty sticks to happiness, our stylish deaths approach

Yeah, we'll choke, but we're still waiting for the next

Emergency dose of sweet, sweep you off your feet

In every store on every street

A microdose of LSD to supplement your sertraline

The slowest suicide you've ever seen

Another tasty dopamine daydream
