Fill my lungs with the one you love the most.

I'll become what you want

If you promise not to let me go.

You told me to close my eyes and surrender myself in the smoke.

For a second, time was lost in my mind

and to my surprise I didn't even choke.

Still, confusion settled in as I wondered why

the taste of burned chemicals in your throat,

Could make you lose your way and turn yourself in to a ghost.

I guess I thought that joining you was the only way to ever know.

Curiosity was always a flaw in me,

But this time it was more like a second home.

A home that left scars on your soul

and destroyed the lives of all the ones you couldn't let go.

So I sat in the dark and I begged my heart

to let me let you go.

But all I got was another breath of smoke replacing air.

Now I have another love to hold tightly on to in despair-

Just in case the day ever came

when you'd decide that your pipe was all you'd ever need.

Just in case once again,

you'd pick crystal over me.

Maybe I'll even be damaged enough by then to let you leave.

Just in case.

Looks like I was right all along about everything.

Just in case you ever need to see

That this is why we could never be.

Just in case you ever remember that you need me.
