Alex

Alex is the best, when she wants to die
The whole world sits and waits, 'til she doesn’t want to die
We’re both only sixteen, skipping class to smoke weed
In her brother’s house, we saw it on TV
And the light comes through the window and shines
Off the stem of her brother’s crackpipe
Alex is my friend, we meet up after school
Her brother knows a guy, who can sell me lots of pills
Lying on her back, she says she wants to die
Then she buys a gram of coke, and she doesn’t want to die
Summer storm makes for a blackened sky
I wonder where Alex is tonight
