"Cigarettes & Hotel Beds" lyrics

"Cigarettes & Hotel Beds"

Last year was another total failure
With how I've been, I guess that's no surprise
Now everyone I know looks like a stranger to me
Lost in unfamiliar city lights
And now I'm half alive
Just hanging out of my hotel bed
That still smells like cigarettes
And I'm running out of broken bones to mend

I think I spent too long wishing the time away in a wasted haze
As I walk towards the unforgiving end
I was always too cool to tell you I missed you when I did
And now I'm chasing my own shadow home again
I'm running out of broken bones to mend

Now, I'm the ghost that lingers round these same old city haunts
The streets that I've been stumbling down for years
Don't wanna worry about the weather or the way things should've been
'Cause it just might bring me to tears
And now I'm half alive
Just hanging out in this rented room
And it still smells like you
Now I'm running out of ways to make it
Can I make it through?

I think I spent too long wishing the time away in a wasted haze
As I walk towards the unforgiving end
I was always too cool to tell you I missed you when I did
And now I'm chasing my own shadow home again
I'm running out of broken bones
To mend when I find my way home
'Cause I don't wanna feel this low again
Oh, it never ends

I think I spent too long wishing the time away in a wasted haze
As I walk towards the unforgiving end
I think I spent too long wishing the time away in a wasted haze
As I walk towards the unforgiving end
I was always too cool to tell you I missed you when I did
And now I'm chasing my own shadow home again
