I just read your letter

That bled from your pen

Lest I forget I’ve been let go

                       

I’m a long gone player

In this theatre of the absurd

We sang the score and kept the sour notes



It was a kick in the shins

To drag me through it again

You ripped a fault line into my soul and skin



If you get this message

I figured it out

You locked the door but won’t let it close



Just tossed your letter                                       

In a ball on the floor                                           

Next to the pissed in cat box on the dirty oak



It was a kick in the shins

To drag me through it again

You ripped a fault line into my soul and skin



It was a kick in the shins

To drag me through it again

You twist heel in the ground

To push me further down

You ripped a fault line into my soul and skin
