Lyrics
Oh yeah it started today in a cloud

And if I were the sun I would shout

It began with a spark, then a flame

Grew into a fire, then spread out again

And I just woke up here surrounded by the whole thing

I can't see a thing through the smoke

And if i could breathe I'd try not to choke

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, nowhere to go

Sometimes I get stuck, yeah I get so upset

I burn at the end, I learn to regret

Just one toss of that faithful cigarette
