This cigar burns a hole straight through my jeans and through your heart, as we watch the ashes form another scar that I will never show, but somehow everybody seems to know my demons.
In all my efforts I've committed treason for chasing dreams that are changing like the seasons.
They make me feel so small but I'm so proud to tell them all that I'm a man now. I can drive a car and I'm a dropout. I'm nobody so far but I don't mess with cigarettes or alcohol cause I'm the best there is and they tell me all the winners smoke cigars.
