Cigarette

Toxic coping

Looking through the window

Watching the rain

Feeling empty lightning

Cutting through my brain

If there is a hope

A chance that I can get

Always memorize the pain

Not wanting to forget

Sitting on the floor

Sickness tearing down my soul

No one’s at the door

I don’t want to stay or go

Why’d you let me sober?

Why’d you let me breathe?

Soon this will be over

But somehow never ever leaves

Feeling all and nothing

My heart’s red and black

Caught between my grieving

And the high that I have left

Looking through the window

Dark feelings are back

Enjoying the sorrow

Have nothing but a cigarette
