Lyrics
Something in the envelope she passed him Weighed more to him than paper and some ink It had the hint of something darker and a hint of something sweet With a little extra glue right on the tip Something in the pain that shot right through him As he climbed up to the place he called his home They say every man's house should be his palace But his castle stank of cat sh*t and alone So he opened it and found a faded picture Of a girl he's never met, but somehow seen Like a memory of a dream from early childhood Like a virgin's idea of release She said "I can bend my arms until they're backwards "But you can't bend your will to take in mine And I could hold my breath until next Wednesday And still be doing fine" He was sad in ways that he couldn't tell her But she tried to make his sadness all her own And he couldn't see the use in spreading sadness So he took his dark depression and went home There were things in him that he never bargained But it wasn't enough to save either one of them Because she took that sadness one step further And left him all alone to face the end Alright, wait Hey, Spet, you out there?
