lyrics

Dear friend,
Hello again
We already spoke
Called you today: surprise !
No rhyme or reason, I know
Just wanted to hear your voice

Your scars spread like a riverbed
I admit the pain’s not lost
And in the tracks of what we left unsaid
A slow trickle of joy bleeds from the frost

My letters are coming to an end
Might be the last one you ever get
All my love, dear friend

Words I ripped out of my gut
So cruel yet so true, love
The stages of heartbreak: they’re infinite
I learned to play an instrument

All the lessons I had to learn again
How to breath
And live without the oxytocin
School ain’t out for summer ‘round here

Reading this must be so boring

My letters are coming to an end
Might be the last one you ever get
All my love, dear friend

My words aren’t saying goodbye forever
Plenty more thoughts to live through
My eyes are more red than blue

Baby, this is my last letter
May your heart glow in the dark
And your light shine through

Baby, this is my last letter
May your heart glow in the dark
I love you
