Don't Smoke

(album: Black Wooden Ceiling Opening - 2008)

Is it because
There's a little part of you that wants to be dead?
Or is it because
Your life feels empty without some ritual?
Or is it because
The rebellion against the adults hasn't ended yet?

But the adults sell cigarettes
And you are young and rich for now
You have the ritual, for free
You wake up each day, don't you?

It's no excuse to start smoking

Where is the rebellion in acting like a fuck-up?
Why not embrace simple health?
It is obvious there is work to do
Strong and deliberately
We are the ones, we have to do it
No more parents. No more gods. Taking responsibility

Living in the world on our own
There's no punishment
Only knowing what to do, no excuses
Do not wait. Go. Improve yourself right now
