So much wisdom, you shouldn't bother Don't need to know that I'm just like my father Mother tells me I hold my liquor well Tells me some things I would never tell When I ask her how to say when I mean to say to you She says, "What's the point? Keep it locked inside." This is the letterhead I never sent Its corners curled inside my head Call me Letterhead So much impact in a single word Shortest breakup that I ever heard Quick to receieve, endless to respond Words did not count, not a single one Now with shields of time and space, I sit with a prisitne postcard But my tongue lies still except to lick the stamp This is the letterhead I never sent I write a page each night in bed Call me Letterhead I'd tell it to your face: I'm bad, I know, but you are worse I kid myself, I wouldn't dare disturb the universe Instead I'll file it away, we all do what we know is wrong SongtexteEach sentence, each word, each letter is a letter bomb I've made a home here no one knows about This dead-letter office whose fire has flickered out Now I remember how to say with I never said to you And I cherish it, spared the embarrassment This is the letterhead I never sent Its corners curled inside my head WE ARE YOUNG AND BLIND, SO UNREFINED Our vision fades the more we try Just call me letterhead (S.W.A.L.K.)
