The Unsent Letter

from Be Brave by The Strange Boys

/

lyrics

the unsent letter
in the top drawer of my dresser
can explain me much better
than i am now
crosses hidden
within revisions
fit to omit anything
the unpleasantness of writing
with a shaky hand
i can foresee getting me too in the end
my lungs are already dead
and i've only begun to kill myself
owning nothing but a cough
sad thought the day you get better
and lose the only thing you have
that you can truly call your own
my uncle taught my brother
and my brother taught me
what is there
is not always what is seen
