"yes, they're mine.
I meant to ask for light.
It's just not the same

"So expensive now.
I bought kings for that party."
"Won't stop me anyhow.
I'll start selling my body."
"Oh man, I drank my life.

Just your lipstick on the cigarettes
you put out on the front step."
"Everyone was a corpse.
I made friends with a girl in a tu-tu."
"That guy at the door
told me he was going to fuck you."
love me
