Give me a joint, a few Percocets
a beer chaser, some Pink Floyd
and fuck this cancer B/S
getting cured crap!
God’s not cutting me any breaks here.
He knows the truth!
Not that many had to die that day,
but we panicked, and it happened
so fast,
and we swore no one would ever tell,
and I’m a life time addict,
and three buddies I keep in touch with
are no better,
and although as great as my life has been
after I came back to the world.
It’s sucked.
