lyrics
Every day I write a letter addressed to only you
Dot my i’s, I cross my t’s, and mind my p’s and q’s
Can’t remember what I’m saying, but I promise it’s the truth
Despite salience of meaning, the words are misconstrued
My head’s too heavy on my shoulders, so broad
Can’t sit a single thought up straight
My dialectics and my sunny disposition gone too long
Won’t catch myself til it’s too late
But I’d love to show you everything in perfect detail
Untie the knot inside, though the returns are piecemeal
Strip myself threadbare, I will sing til I believe you
A lovely song, before too long
He holds the door open for demons filled with rage
And as they overtake his soul, they ask to play a game
To see how long he’d hold his breath, he jumped into the lake
And as he sank beneath the surf, his heart began to break
And as they showed him everything in perfect detail
He felt a knot untie; his being became piecemeal
The waves will strip him threadbare and he’ll sing til he believes you
A lovely song, before too long
