Close The Curtains

Sit alone in my room again 

My curtains are black so the light can’t come In even though I want it to 

Self  destruction is my only home

And the only one I’ve ever known

Light up that cigarette 

Take a hit of that pen 

Get high again to say too much 

Clean the dishes and go to bed 

Everyday is the same so why should I stay
