Pack of Memories

Light another one up, yeah, it's just me tonight

Empty pack on the table, flameless neon light

Old memories flicker like a distant fire

Drinking on my beer, trying to forget what's passed me by

We used to laugh till we cried, shared dreams in the dark

Now it's just smoke in my lungs, a lonely spark

You were my anchor, my bright morning star

Now you're just a memory, and I wonder where you are

Pour another glass, drown the past away

Lost in the haze, where we used to stay

Drawing circles on the wall, trying to make sense of it all

But the distance grew, and I lost you in the fall

Smoking a pack of cigarettes, drinking a beer alone

Fighting the shadows of a love that’s gone

Thinking 'bout the days when we were close

Now I sit in silence, just me and my ghost

Maybe someday we'll find our way back

Or maybe this is just a fading track

But tonight, I’m just a lone rider

In a city’s glow, with my heart growing tired

Maybe I’m an old soul

Light another one up, let the night unfold

Chasing the ghosts, trying to hold on to what was gold

If I could, I’d turn back the time

But for now, it’s just me and my smoky rhyme
