Letters

You tore off my skin with your teeth and you shaved my face You didn't leave any cuts with your dull pink razor blade But did you think this was serious? No, that's not something that we get from these late night phone calls And I always let myself get carried away with all the things you say And I drink them in like I drink everything Careful at first But I get lost sometimes You wrote me a letter The stamp said forever But the mailman doesn't do his job I found it buried in a newspaper with Hebrew letters It had the wrong address But I still found it buried Yeah, I still read it by myself I took a kitchen knife to the envelope Slim fingers never do this right And I shut the door Lay on my bed Reminds me that I always let myself get carried away
