(somber indie rock music)
♪ When you get older, plainer, saner ♪
♪ Will you remember all the danger we came from ♪
(singer whistles)
♪ Burning like embers, falling tender ♪
♪ Long before the days of no surrender years ago ♪
♪ And, well, you know ♪
♪ So smoke 'em if you got 'em ♪
♪ 'Cause it's going down ♪
♪ All I ever wanted was you ♪
♪ I'll never get to heaven ♪
♪ 'Cause I don't know how ♪
♪ Let's raise a glass or two ♪
♪ To all the things I've lost on you, oh, oh ♪
♪ Tell me, are they lost on you, oh, oh ♪
♪ Just that you could cut me loose, oh, oh ♪
♪ After everything I've lost on you ♪
♪ Is that lost on you ♪
♪ Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh ♪

♪ Tell me that you love me more than hate me ♪
♪ All the time ♪
♪ And you're still mine ♪
♪ So, smoke 'em if you got 'em ♪
♪ 'Cause it's going down ♪
♪ All I ever wanted was you ♪
