Sapiens - Cigarettes and Throat Sweets

The last thing I remember
Before you had to leave
Was the taste of your lips
The smoke and the sweet
Dragged from me forever
They will never see
The image love can render
As sick as it can be

I've been a lookin' for something to replace the fire that burns in your eyes
Now that you're gone I've been packing my suitcase
Time to be severing ties
'Cause you are to me like a heel to Achilles
A Weakness I can't live without
Fighting to feel how you want me to be
A revolution is coming about

The bitter contradiction
To help you turn the trick
To find our place within this world
Our lovin' don't come quick
And the last memory of you
I can feel your heartbeart
And the last embrace of your lips
Cigarettes and throat sweets

I've been a lookin' for something to replace the fire that burns in your eyes
Now that you're gone I've been packing my suitcase
Time to be severing ties
'Cause you are to me like a heel to Achilles
A weakness I can't live without
Fighting to feel how you want me to be
A revolution is coming about

The bitter contradiction (to help you turn the trick)
To find our place within this world (our lovin' don't come quick)
It's time to kick the hornets nest (fighting just to be)
Love and revolution (you better stay behind me yeah)
