Dorothy - Black Tar & Nicotine lyrics

Raised myself for a million lies I could sell religion to Jesus Christ A broken home, I left behind Gave up everything for a couple of lines I know my time is growing near My heart is empty and there’s no tears I wasted so many years Lost in the bottle ’till I disappeared Heading down the same routine My throne is high just like a king But black tar and nicotine Shot me in the heart and k**ed my dreams The world is bitter cold Filled my pockets with blood and stone The streets I grew up on, I called home Friends I had left me long ago Running far and in-between I had it all at seventeen But black tar and nicotine Shot me in the heart and k**ed my dreams One day heaven came to take my pain With a fist full of pills and a needle stuck in my vein Tears roll down like sweat on my face I didn’t know what to do ’cause I was afraid I’m sitting alone in this motel room Paper thin walls and a rack for my shoes Don’t know where I’m going next Now I lay here in this bed ‘Cause black tar and nicotine Shot me in the heart and k**ed my dreams ‘Cause black tar and nicotine Shot me in the heart and k**ed my dreams Black tar and nicotine Shot me in the heart and k**ed my dreams Black tar and nicotine Shot me in the heart and k**ed my dreams
