Because that's all we had in common
We all wanted to die
And there would always be moments where we didn't even have a reason why
But we would always be mad at the world
And mad at ourselves
Always wanting to be somebody or somewhere else
And that's the worst part of it all
Knowing that we'll never be so tall
Enough to reach to tie that noose
Or to reach that bottle of jack on that shelf
Or to reach that lighter to smoke an entire pack to ourselves
Our lives are series of unfortunate events and we will never understand we don't mind because as long as we have
This lighter, this smoke, this forty, and our friends,
There will never be anything we lack
So thank you
Thank you
Corner store, you will always have my BACK
