I keep a pack

Of American Spirits

In my backpack at all times

Like Desmond Hume

And our mutual friend

In case of emergencies

My stepdad died

And I felt only relief

That he wasn't here anymore

He called me up

And he threatened to kick my ass

'Cause I didn't call my mom on Mother's Day

When I was 16

She left in the middle of the night

So it seems like she's forfeited

Any obligation on my part to call

I've felt fucked up

And I've felt that way for a long time

And there's Spirits

In my backpack
