Marlboro

Let me say,
he means nothing to me
I want some things he don’t got
I was 8, then I turned 18
It’s the same damn thing
So let me say, 
that guys like you just don’t change
and these days when I see you for you
Just a first class ticket
To something new 
To someone new

Every other weekend,
I used to live there on a Wednesday
When I was green.
When I was flesh and blood
I used to tell myself that I was rich
I used to dream that we were rich
I used to dream 
I used to dream
that these problems don’t exist.

Eighteen years, 
How you like that, ma? 
How you like that, ma?
Stayed awake here for hours,
to graduating with honours
to carpools two cities, through cities
she don’t need your help, 
we don’t need no help.
You can show up and smile 
but you’re by yourself
you’re by yourself.
