Cig

She got on a plane

Took off bound for Santa Fe

Touched down on the edge of another world

Made a few mistakes

And it's kind of hard to fuck the pain away

Hooked on amphetamine and pearls

Hey she drove off into the sunset

Drinkin’ pinot, singin' 'Livin on a Prayer'

Hey when all her childhood dreams get put to rest

Maybe in another life she'll get somewhere

But in the end we all burn out like cigarettes

Captain on the team

Quarterback on the varsity

Crowd goes wild he throws a touchdown

But graduation came

He lost his number but he kept his name now he’s

Pumpin’ gas at the Texaco downtown

Hey he drove off into the sunset

Drinking Bud Light, singin 'Livin on a Prayer'

Hey when all his childhood dreams get put to rest

Maybe in another life he'll get somewhere

But in the end we all burn out like cigarettes

Now I’m singing a song for you

About a childhood dream that won't come true

But I’m somewhere out in the Midwest chasin' mine

So if you're feelin’ blue

I’ll light up a match for you

And we'll send the world up in smoke tonight

Hey we’ll drive off into the sunset

Drinkin’ whiskey singin' 'Livin' on a Prayer'

Hey when all of our childhood dreams get put to rest

Maybe in another life we'll get somewhere

But in the end we all burn out like cigarettes

In the end we all burn out like cigarettes

In the end we all burn out like a cigarette
