From the EP Speakeasy (2012)
Take it real slowly, touch it to your lips
Breathe in just a little to begin with
Let it all out gently, but savour that burn
Even though it hurts a little, you won’t learn
Coz the poison is delicious
When it comes straight from your eyes
And now you’ve lit my fire
Baby, you won’t let it die
You said, ‘A little bit can’t hurt you
How can just a taste be bad?’
And I thought I could believe you
So I took another drag
Yes I took another drag
So the smoke will lift, but the ash remains
Joy fades, but an addiction stays
The heat’s so tempting, but not for long
Anything that deadly will go wrong
The fire keeps on burning
You saw to it I’m hooked
This smoke I keep on breathing
Is stronger than it looks
You said, ‘I’ll never hurt you
So how can this be bad?’
And I thought I could believe you
So I went back to your bed
Yes I went back to your bed
Your bed
Your, your, your, your
You said, ‘I’ll never hurt you
So how could this be bad?’
