Cigarette Burn Sky

Pulled over once just to stretch my back Didn’t get out, just stared at black Sky looked worn, like it’s been through hell Same kinda look I know too well

Ash fell slow on my worn-out jeans Wind took half, like it always seems There’s a mile marker I don’t read Don’t need numbers to know I’m leavin’

Night don’t rush, it just sits with you Lets you think what you try not to

Cigarette burn sky, holes in the dark Little bit of light, but it don’t go far I keep drivin’ under what I’ve done Tryin’ to outrun what I can’t outrun

Cigarette burn sky, quiet and wide Ain’t no place left for me to hide Every mile just pulls it through Everything I said… and didn’t to you

Gas station glow in the middle of nowhere Bug lights buzzin’, nobody there Filled it up, didn’t check the change Didn’t feel like talkin’ anyway

Heard a train cut through the night Low and long, out of sight Sounded like somethin’ breakin’ loose Or maybe just somethin’ I can’t use

Smoke don’t last, it fades away Wish it worked like that for mistakes

Cigarette burn sky, holes in the dark Little bit of light, but it don’t go far I keep drivin’ under what I’ve done Tryin’ to outrun what I can’t outrun

Cigarette burn sky, quiet and wide Ain’t no place left for me to hide Every mile just pulls it through Everything I said… and didn’t to you

I keep thinkin’ I’ll feel better a few miles up Like there’s some line I’ll cross and it just… stops But it don’t It just gets quieter And somehow louder at the same time

Cigarette burn sky, watch it fade Same old road, different mistakes I ain’t lost, I just don’t stay Anywhere long enough to change

Cigarette burn sky, burnin’ through Everything I tried not to lose If there’s peace, it ain’t out here But I keep lookin’ anyway
