about

Yah, I used to drink a lot of whiskey and smoke a lot of cigarettes. This was also the title track from the Whiskey and Cigarettes album. Written about how somehow we never feel like we are enough for people.

lyrics

I don't wanna be another tattoo that you'll regret
I don't wanna just be someone next to who'm you've slept
I don't wanna be a picture in your wallet that you'll forget
I wanna be a gold slide, warm whiskey, and your favorite pack of cigarettes

This is the worst home coming yet
To an empty bed
And you ramblin', rambling' in my head

I drew my sword but quickly laid it down the day you came around
I stripped all my armor and tore down the wall I built to keep me safe from harm
I wanna watch you sleep every morning and kiss you awake
But you had to go again and leave me hanging to nurse myself through the heart ache again
