Lustra

I’m sniffing cigarettes in the dark again
I’m calling out your name
But I’ll pretend someone’s waiting
If you’d listen to just what I said
You might take the time to write it down
And call on me
When you’re down
I am down
All your cigarettes on the window sill
I don’t know if you were once a friend
Or just pretending
Open up that big old mouth of yours
Pills and razors
Marked the days as they were
Never-ending
When you’re down
I am down
You should not forget
Every time we met
Shaking hands like friends
Then I swore I’d never go
I’d never go alone
