Briquet Lyrics

It hurts me that it's got to be this way

I can no longer hide

God knows I've tried

I held on for as long as I could

If I could change it you know that I would



This is the way I am

This is what I do

We can always pretend

There's not a word you cannot bend



I cried tears, there not for you

Playing a game I know you've done too

But trust me I'll be there to light your cigarette

And I'll try to make you laugh

And I'll try to understand

Still it's all the same you know

I'm just playing my game



Close your ears if you don't like

The sound of my voice

You're right,

Like I had a choice
