Friend and Monster

I'll be your cigarette
when you are in the
non smoking section of your life

Just don't leave me
burning in the ashtray
when you decide to quit smoking

I'll be your vice
your alcohol and your
drug addition

Just don't stop me cold turkey
when you decide to be
clean and sober

I know its hard being you
you can be me
I won't be anyone at all

Just remember to
give me back to me
when your done

Don't worry about my wounds
they will heal in time

I'll be your friend and monster
