Secondhand Smoke Lyrics
Sometimes you could hear a pin drop
Or the ticking of the clock
Between the surface conversation
No matter what they were sayin′
They never talked, hmm
Sometimes I would hear 'em screamin′
When they thought that I was sleepin'
They'd just fight about whatever
I don′t know if they ever had a reason
Am I the product of a problem that I couldn′t change?
Got his eyes, got her hair
So do I get their mistakes?
I know
That you can't walk across a bridge
That′s already burned, so
What am I supposed to do?
I can't help that they choose
To breathe it in, but I don′t wanna choke
On that secondhand smoke
Sometimes I hear myself sayin'
Hand-me-down words
It′s so easy to forget
That he ain't him, and I ain't her
And when I think fighting has to end in a goodbye
I wanna prove me wrong
But I′m scared I′ll prove me right, 'cause
I know
That you can′t walk across a bridge
That's already burned, so
What am I supposed to do?
I can′t help that they chose
To breathe it in, but I don't wanna choke
On that secondhand smoke
Oh, no
Will I be better? Find forever?
Be the one to shake the habit?
Break away from broken things
And rise above the ashes?
I know
That you can′t walk across a bridge
That's already burned, so
What am I supposed to do?
I can't help that they chose
To breathe it in, but I don′t wanna choke
No, I ain′t gonna choke
On that secondhand smoke
Ooh, oh, oh
