Strike a match, light a cigarette
Time to ponder every last regret
Confusion, guilt, and nostalgiaSome feelings I am not proud of
Troubles vanish through a cloud of smoke
One more drag just to help me cope
Searching for clarity of mind
Something I will never find
Lost in this nicotine dream
This pseudo-reality
Lost in this nicotine dream, oh
Lost in this nicotine dream
This pseudo-reality
Lost in this nicotine dream, oh
Strike a match, light a cigarette
Memories I will never forget
Confusion, guilt, and nostalgia
Decisions I am not proud of
Troubles vanish through a cloud of smoke
One more drag just to give me hope
Searching for clarity of mind
But realize I′ve only wasted time
Lost in this nicotine dream
This pseudo-reality
Lost in this nicotine dream, oh
Lost in this nicotine dream
This pseudo-reality
Lost in this nicotine dream, oh
