Drugged by Marc Isaac Potter

I live in a group home for the mentally ill sure. Most of the people around here smoke which is kind of cool because I love smoking too but I quit a long time ago

People around here go off the property and take drugs and then come back all drugged up.

What can I say? I care about them but when they get all drugged up I get scared of them they slam doors and hit things they put holes in the wall sometimes they break the door

I live in the very same house as these people so what can I do I can't afford to move and I

Mostly I would not want to move I really like living here but when people get all drugged up it's really scary and super scary
