Dear Jack,

I'll write you as a friend

Dear friend,

I fear the end is coming soon

To you it's not so clear

It's clear to me

It's clear as glass

Dear Jack, Dear Jack, Dear Jack,

Dear Hope

Attach it to the end of your rope

A rope that wove ambition in with sorrow

Distancing tomorrow, tomorrow's come and past.

Dear Jack, Dear Jack



You were the fighter

I was the kid against the world

I heard there's nothing gonna hold you down

I'll use a lighter so you can see what isn't there

We'll swing at air

Swinging off eventually you're bound

Bound to the ground



Dear Jack

Wherever you are hold tight

Wherever he is shine light right there

Be strong I dare

I know it's hard I will wait

I will wait, yeah.



You were the fighter

I was the kid against the world

I heard there's nothing gonna hold you down

I'll use a lighter so you can see what isn't there

We'll swing at air

Swinging off eventually you're bound

Bound to the ground



I, I had songs for you

I had all your music written out

The words came when I heard you screaming

I, I, I, I had plans for you

Until the plans fell through

Now there is no turning back my dear Jack



You were the fighter

I was the kid against the world

I heard there's nothing gonna hold you down

I'll use a lighter so you can see what isn't there

We'll swing at air

Swinging off eventually you're bound

You're bound to the ground

And oh, oh, oh

We're bound to the ground

Bound to the ground

We're bound to the ground
