Li Carty - Chinese Cigarettes Covered in Gold

All these Chinese cigarettes in my back pocket
Burning one by one till they're all dust
I once had your flame it was all lust
It was no fuss It was just us
Chinese cigarettes and they all gold
It's true that I knew that I had to go
It's true just a few that I had to know
It's you yeah its you that I miss the most
I spent bout a year of my life looking for my better side
Now I see what I see feeling like a scary ride
I vibe in the clouds and I'm blasting the loud
And i Hear all my songs being sung by the crowd
It's all in my dreams, but I had a few more
Sleeping on the floor cause the comfy bed is a chore
You walk and I snore and you laugh and I cry
And the dry days drying out my eyes every time
If could see your face
Then A kiss is enough
But we both know it ain't
And I hate feeling love
You said that you can't
And I still understand
But the truth of the fact
Is the fact is a sham
And now here I am
I'm here on my own
And I'm texting your phone
Could you throw me a bone?
Cause I can't sleep
You're still in my dreams
And I've lost all sanity by staying up For weeks
All these Chinese cigarettes in my back pocket
Burning one by one till they're all dust
I once had your flame it was all lust
It was no fuss It was just us
Chinese cigarettes and they all gold
It's true that I knew that I had to go
It's true just a few that I had to know
It's you yeah its you that I miss the most
Now
Lemme take it back to the baseline
Shanghai nights we were gonna facetime
But we did what we did just to save time
Never gave me a hint through the grape vine
Hit me like a pound of bricks
Now I'm Rick with the flick of wrist
Instantly pissed
Wishing that I couldn't reminisce
I want my dreams back
I don't wanna have a rehash
Warm bodies are good
But they always seem to leave fast
Learning what I can from the weak past
Weep last whip lash feeling like street trash
Last line fine by design clear the mind of time that I cried, leave the thought far behind
If I tried maybe I could fly high
But I lied telling you a goodbye
All these Chinese cigarettes in my back pocket
Burning one by one till they're all dust
I once had your flame it was all lust
It was no fuss It was just us
Chinese cigarettes and they all gold
It's true that I knew that I had to go
It's true just a few that I had to know
It's you yeah its you that I miss the most
The right thing is past me
I knew what you asked see
From my perspective shoulda woulda done more
To Take trains I can't afford
I should have flown with all of my money to welcome you from abroad
And never left saying that I'd be seeing you soon
When The saddest part happened as the clouds loomed
I held you there in my arms
I wiped the tears from your cheeks
I kissed you Middle the storm
Said it will be just 4 weeks
But it's the fifth week now
I'm up at 5am
I lost so damn much
I lost my new best friend
And I was hoping to talk
You just wanted to walk
So I'm asking now if asking is too much
And if you can't, I understand it
I'm always understanding
But the truth is that I understand why we cant manage
The Sleepless nights for so long
That I could walk you back home
Drop you off safe
See the message on my phone
And no more love songs for now
I've really had it all out
Just know if you hearing this,
I'm thinking of you somewhere right now
All these Chinese cigarettes in my back pocket
Burning one by one till they're all dust
I once had your flame it was all lust
It was no fuss It was just us
Chinese cigarettes and they all gold
It's true that I knew that I had to go
It's true just a few that I had to know
It's you yeah its you that I miss the most
All these Chinese cigarettes in my back pocket
Burning one by one till they're all dust
I once had your flame it was all lust
It was no fuss It was just us
Chinese cigarettes and they all gold
It's true that I knew that I had to go
It's true just a few that I had to know
It's you yeah its you that I miss the most
