Cigarettes Lyrics by Brother Moses

Magnolia

2018

The first cigarette that I ever tried
Weak on your porch
Eyes closed and
Held inside
Too old to make sense of the innocence
And our legs in a shape
Like a crucifix
Turn on the television sleep on the couch
Wake up in shoes, and walk back to
Mary's house
Tell her a story that she'll always believe
Hold in the taste of the smoke back
Behind my teeth
I give a lot of weight
To your answers now
I never knew
That (all of my family lies were right inside of me)
Oh I'm too close
I think I'm close to clean
The way it all just fades
And requiescence takes its place
My temple body in a Mayan state
If I come over is my secret safe?
I know it's hard enough to love me when
I'm on my face
You can crack my head wide open
Put me in my place
And I don't know if I can take it
I wasn't complacent
I died on the table that night
I hope you know
Don't call out that you'll wait for me
If you're scared, can you keep that to
Yourself?
Can you keep that from me?
