    Story Behind the Song
    This song is about the reoccurance of bad habits coupled with feelings of failure and hope. The referenc to chain smoking is both literal and metaphoric.

    Lyrics
    i’m chain smoking my failures
    and i think i have the knack
    of frazzling my savior
    so i’ll buy another pack
    even though i’d miss it so
    i think i see the way
    to kick these awful habits
    as long as i don’t start today

    as the years add up
    i don’t seem to grow
    as the years add up
    i still can’t say no

    i am not the boy you think you know
    i am so much less than what i show

    i’m chain smoking my failures
    and i’m lighting up with pride
    i’m burning up on both ends
    and i think it’s what i like
    i think i’m in the place i never
    thought that i could be
    i think i’m a disgrace to what you
    thought that i could be

    i am not the boy you think you know
    i am so much more than what i show
    i am sinking further down than low

    i’m chain smoking my failures
    and i wish you’d tell me why
    despite my wrong behavior
    my eyes are always dry
    i know all the answers but
    i’m scared to follow through
    my life’s a disaster and
    i don’t know what to do

    as the years add up
    i don’t seem to grow
    as the years add up
    i still can’t say no

    i am not the boy you think you know
    i am not the boy you think you know
    i think it is time for me to go
    i think it is time to let you know
