Southbound Letters

I was headed southbound before I could lock eyes

Someone was trying to tell me to get it together
And I knew, and I knew what it could have been
Awful, a lot, scrounging through second-hand, hand-me-downs
Should have been, could have been
But you bet that I would never get it together
Get it together

It's a miracle that I could find
The little part of me that died
Common misconceptions lead to lies
So educate yourself, but don't forget to cite

It's a miraclе that I could find
The little part of me that diеd
Common misconceptions lead to lies
So educate yourself, but don't forget to cite

I put it down in a note that I needed to get it together
And I knew, and I knew that it should have been long
Letter-sized envelope
Sealed and stamped, let it go
Could have been, should have been
But you bet that I would never get it together
Get it together

It's a miracle that I could find
The little part of me that died
Common misconceptions lead to lies
So educate yourself, but don't forget to cite

It's a miracle that I could find
The little part of me that died
Common misconceptions lead to lies
So educate yourself, but don't forget to cite
