Nicotine

You are everything I’ve never wanted
You are everything I’ll never need.
You are every vice, every thorn, every bad habit.
You are like a drug with nothing but side effects.

You are everything I want.
You are everything I think I need.
You are every smile, every flower, every good deed.
You are like my Vitamin C.

You are everything I never needed.
You are everything I see.

When I walk outside the door, I hope to see you there.
When I hear you sing a song, I hope it’s about me.
When I close my eyes to dream at night, I hope you’re dreaming about me.
When I can’t find the light, I hope you’ll be my sun.
When I feel like I’m trapped in a prison, I hope you’ll come to the rescue.

You are everything I never needed.
You are everything I see.
