Every Puff and Every Gulp

I
Use to look
You in the eyes
But then
They went bloodshot
And you went yellow
You told me
Not to cry
Just give you
Another cigarette
And beer
But daddy
Don't you see
They're killing you
Every puff
Every gulp
You're gonna die
So
But not by my hands
Get your liquor
And your own cigar
My hands
Can't help
Kill you.
