Secondhand Smoke

Lyrics

Sometimes you could hear a pin drop
 Or the ticking of the clock
 Between the surface conversation
 No matter what they were sayin'
 They never talked, hmm
 Sometimes I would hear 'em screamin'
 When they thought that I was sleepin'
 They'd just fight about whatever
 I don't know if they ever had a reason
 Am I the product of a problem that I couldn't change?
 Got his eyes, got her hair
 So do I get their mistakes?
 I know
 That you can't walk across a bridge
 That's already burned, so
 What am I supposed to do?
 I can't help that they choose
 To breathe it in, but I don't wanna choke
 On that secondhand smoke
 ♪
 Sometimes I hear myself sayin'
 Hand-me-down words
 It's so easy to forget
 That he ain't him, and I ain't her
 And when I think fighting has to end in a goodbye
 I wanna prove me wrong
 But I'm scared I'll prove me right, 'cause
 I know
 That you can't walk across a bridge
 That's already burned, so
 What am I supposed to do?
 I can't help that they chose
 To breathe it in, but I don't wanna choke
 On that secondhand smoke
 Oh, no
 Will I be better? Find forever?
 Be the one to shake the habit?
 Break away from broken things
 And rise above the ashes?
 I know
 That you can't walk across a bridge
 That's already burned, so
 What am I supposed to do?
 I can't help that they chose
 To breathe it in, but I don't wanna choke
 No, I ain't gonna choke
 On that secondhand smoke
 Ooh, oh, oh
 
 Sometimes you could hear a pin drop
