	Story Behind the Song This was written on a crisp night while smoking. I realized I was commiting a sort of slow motion suicide because I couldn't get a hold of the heart I most desired. I gave up on her, and I've quit smoking since. Lyrics Light my cigarette Exhale the smoke to blow the match out. Pout my lips and lick my fingertips To turn the page. Magazine ad Says it’s bad It’s not the answer Gonna gimme’ cancer But I need this smoke to warm my heart from its sedation (And I) Cry of criminal situation My cremation Of my lungs Is to avoid asphyxiation Dormant melancholy sighing My tongue’s lying When I say I wanna’ take all the I love you’s back Baby, I’m crying I’m dying I’m lying here Naked on my back Your indifference has thrown my entire system out of whack And forcin’ me to fade to black Ashes all will fall after all That’s what they’re supposed to do But what am I supposed to do with you Ashes, ashes all fall down Who’s the biggest fool around Maybe it’s me No definitely I Squeeze the filter ‘tween my fingers Just to drop the cherry Better drop this habit I won’t have it Any other way Have to extinguish this flame Just to distinguish my name From the lame Things I used to call myself Before I felt the need to even up the score To avoid a permanent vacation Repeat Chorus (with this alternate ending) Blow a smoke ring around the rosie Pocket full of strangled posies ashes ashes all fall down who's the biggest fool around Maybe it's me No definately Repeat Chorus
