A bit of coke, little drag of smoke, nothing suits me like the sip of gin trickling down your lips I’m hoping for an ashtray, a pinch of crystal on my wrists to feed these veins from a dehydrated paroxysm Never settle for a sober embrace or the scent of your showered skin But I’ll take the drug, the need (a scar) to burn naked purity if it means I’ll always be gone

The addict
A bit of coke, little drag of smoke, nothing suits me like the sip of gin trickling down your lips I’m hoping for an ashtray, a pinch of crystal on my wrists to feed these veins from a dehydrated paroxysm Never settle for a sober embrace or the scent of your showered skin But I’ll take the drug, the need (a scar) to burn naked purity if it means I’ll always be gone
