The Smoke

How'd we end up here?
Your keys on my dresser again
Don't know if I'll see you again, so I say as much as I can
I had so much to say
But now that I've got it all out
You're on my couch, we've still got shit to figure out
I hate to face it, but it's not going away

And I know with you it's never simple
I'm just a pawn, so I shouldn't play
Know I could never hate you
Maybe it'd be better that way

So stay a little longer
I'm the flame, you're the wind, I know
I could quit, make you watch me go
But you know I'll choose the smoke

It's like we frozen here
Lost my pride and all common sense
You know I can't call you friend
So how do you want this to end?

Now it's three AM (it's three AM)
And we both ain't gonna give in
We want our peace of mind, but we aren't getting it tonight
Are we now?

And I know with you it's never simple
Though that's the reason that I stay
Know better than to pull you closer, but
I do it anyway

So stay a little longer
I'm the flame, you're the wind, I know
I could quit, make you watch me go
But you know I'll choose the smoke

Curse you out at the party
Why can't you just say you want me?
You hate yourself so you make me feel like you
You even said it yourself

Tug of war, but I'm tired now
I'll be up just to come back down
I'll be burned every way this plays out
But I have to hear you out

So stay a little longer
I'm the flame, you're the wind, I know
I could quit, make you watch me go
But you know I'll choose the smoke

So stay a little longer
I'm the flame, you're the wind, I know (I know)
I could quit, make you watch me go (me go)
But you know I'll choose the smoke
I choose the smoke
I choose the smoke
I choose the smoke
I choose the smoke
