Only My Cigarettes Stayed

作词 : Niki the Unicorn

作曲 : Niki the Unicorn

Should we call it lucky? Or unfortunate

You met me when I am happy and drunk

The perfect timing when I showed my wildness

And my living-in-the-moment side

So, then you start the game

The good old chasing kind

Straightforward, butter me up

Calls in the middle of the night

You saw the spark in my eyes

So, then you came to take the light out of it

Didn’t you?

I thought you’d take all the versions of me

Not just the twirling-in-the-rain

-at-2am-by-the-seaside

You want to know about my twisted past

So, that I’ll be all miss sunshine

And stop smoking day and night

You smirk with confidence and speak in certainty

And said you’ll catch me when I fall

But in the end, you left

Only my cigarettes stayed

I didn’t cry at all

I saw it coming two months ago

Should we call it?

Should we say our goodbyes?

I mean

You’ve mentioned it like thirteen times

The same old fights over the same old reasons

You talk like a saint

But shout like a psychopath

So, as the days go by

I started talking to a child

You know my joy in poetry

But to you, I write without simile

You saw the tolerance in me

So, then you came to max it out

Didn’t you?

I thought you’d take all the versions of me

Not just the twirling-in-the-rain

-at-2am-by-the-seaside

You want to know about my twisted past

So, that I’ll be all miss sunshine

And stop smoking day and night

You smirk with confidence and speak in certainty

And said you’ll catch me when I fall

But in the end, you left

Only my cigarettes stayed

I didn’t cry at all

I saw it coming two months ago
