The song "Cigarettes Out the Window" by TV Girl is about a woman named Liddy who smokes cigarettes when she can't sleep. She tries to quit smoking but never really does, instead just tossing her cigarettes into the night. The song is a reflection on the emptiness of life, as the chorus indicates: "Cigarettes out the window/ You'll find moonlit nights strangely empty/ Because when you call my name through them there will be no answer." The lyrics suggest a feeling of loneliness and isolation, since the protagonist cannot share her worries and fears with anyone. The introduction and ending of Victor Jory's song give the impression that cigarette smoking is a form of theatrical performance and adds to the sense of loneliness experienced by the narrator. The song finally concludes with the line: "Somehow it makes the performance better." This speaks to how the mundane and seemingly meaningless aspects of life can still be appreciated and used to make art.

I love this song. It's comforting, and has a good sound to it. I have a dad who smokes, and drinks whenever he was 15. He's 40 now, and he decided to quit smoking. He got a heart disease due to smoking, so he kinda had to stop. He has a machine to read his heart weight to know if he relapsed, or not. I love my dad, and he's doing better❤
Edit: my dad relapsed during the summer, but I believe in him ^^

I had a boyfriend, he was my first love. He had problems with smoking,alcohol etc.I always tried to help him and hid his cigarettes,alcohol and the other stuff, but it made it even worse and he sometimes beat me up because of it. He often told me he didn't drink or smoke but i could always smell it. It just got worse and worse and he ended up taking his own life, this song reminds me so much of him. May he rest in peace.
