23 cigarrettes
...32...
54 cigarrettes
on the count down
to my way down
through the couch
to the smokey land
of nothingness
to the 9 to 5 working hours
of numbness
7 cigarrettes still lit up
smokey mountain of 13 pikes
19 pages still in white
5 hours, 7 minutes...
for the alarm clock to strike
2:36 and I'm ready
2:37 I'm steady
2:38 I can't wait
72 cigarrettes
on the count down
on my way down
