Till you’re gone


You stay the same,

Popping pills and smoking

To get rid of the pain.

If you don't quit now,

I'll be going to your wake.

 

Scratch that.

I'll be sleeping in late.

Not even thinking about you.

Getting ready for my day,

Won't even notice your away.

My sister

She called you gay.
