Cheap Cigarettes and Vodka Will Always Remind Me of You.
By Quietus
Two girls,
Beautiful and all grown up.
They’ve known each other
For years.
The best years of their lives
Have come by and gone.
Who knew it’d go so fast?
They used to sneak out
At the crack of midnight,
To see cute, older boys
And smoke cheap cigarettes.
They used to crack open the vodka
When no parents were home,
Just to forget the world together.
Who will forget the
world with them now?
Three-thousand miles apart sounded easy,
But it’s not so easy,
Is it?
No, it isn’t easy when neither girl
Wants to be replaced.
A
short phone call cannot be compared to seven years of bliss.
