A LETTER

[Intro]
Hello, no one is available to take your call
Please leave a message after the tone
(BEEP)
“Uh, it’s been awhile since I talked to you last
I hope you're doing well
Uhm, I miss you
I hope he’s taking care of you
Uhm, just get uh, call me back when you get the chance man
Alright, bye, love you”

[Bridge]
I just wanna know where you at
If you got lost in the shadows
Mom says your still in your house
But I never hear nothing there though
Got my heart sinking, Titanic
Got my emotions hysteric
I still remember the day that you left
It was like God committed human theft
Of a perfectly fine soul
I know for a fact it wasn’t your time to go
But he took you anyways
Cryin’ on the loveseat as you melt away
But I can’t judge anything that you do
Everything’s gotta bigger purpose, you see
I still can’t believe he took you away from me
Away from me

[Verse 1]
Yeah
I mourn you everyday
I still think about the things that you would say
Like when you gave me advice on the girl in the fifth grade, huh, what a time man
But I’m happily in love now and I’m the man
Or at least that’s what I think
Feelings, runnin’ down the sink

I thought about joining you once
But I thought that’d be a little selfish wouldn’t it
Leaving behind my mom, my dad, my girl
It just dosen’t sit
Mr. Lonely suggested it
He’s not good at those things
He’s overstayed his welcome
It’s time to kill this grip

[Outro]
“Nobody ever told me that grief felt so much like fear
It’s a powerful statement
‘Fear’. The fear of what?
The fear of losing yourself
The fear that this intense pain will never stop
The fear of forgetting the sound of his voice
Or his laugh
Or that others will forget him
That his life, won’t have mattered
Grief makes you feel isolated
Alone
Terrified
Damaged
And scared of absolutely everything.”
