The Lighters You Stole

There's a blue one I stole from 7/11 when I moved out of state
And a white one with an archer on it that Taylor gave me on our last date
I've been growing this collection ever since I was young
I didn't even smoke then I just thought that it was fun

Try to justify keeping them all
They were insignificant they were small

Keep a lighter keep a secret keep burning it up
Keep finding other reasons to say you're not the one
Keep smiling long after you get old
And keep all of the secrets of the lighters that you stole

There's a green one that one day I'm gonna use when I burn Wall Street down
And a candle lighter I took from the man who couldn't stick around
He was a whole different person the last time he smoked me out
But in my head he'll still be perfect because I don't know who he is now

Burn but we never learn how to forget
I'm not ready to say I give up yet

Keep a lighter keep a secret keep burning it up
Keep finding other reasons to say you're not the one
Keep smiling long after you get old
And keep all of the secrets of the lighters that you stole

There's an old one I found when we had to clean out my grandmas house
She took it to Woodstock long before her lungs gave out
She was wild she was free she was far from divine
But I keep it because one day I'll be smoking by her side
