I wrote you a letter
To burn and feel better
I cried as my pen
died
Asking myself why
I can't burn this
I can't let this go

I can't
I can't
I can't let this ******* go

I wrote you a letter
Of all the hurt you've done
everything you did wrong
the pain in my lungs
I wrote you a letter  
To Help me move on
it just held me again
Stung
With my own pen

You have a way
everything you say
In my mind
my own fault
my heart
an empty vault
Never you to blame
You hold no shame

I want to let you go
I want to break free
Of this dramatic show
I want to feel free
Of the tyranny
You have over me

That's why
I wrote you a letter
Saying goodbye
I wrote you a letter
Telling you I cried
I wrote you this letter
So you may die
From my life
I wrote you a letter
To say I love you
Most of all
I wrote you a letter
To let go of you

Burn you
To ashes
I fell down ...
   ... Like a boat,
In the ocean crashes
Waves bellowed over me
Screaming into my ears
Drowning me with fears

I can't burn something drowning
In water
I can't burn something
I hold as a flower
Blooming in the pain
Of my tears
I hold it so dear

I can't
I can't
I can't let this ******* go

I can't ignite the flames
I can't release the ink
I harbour it forever
In every song
Every sky
Every moon lit night
Every sign
I pass by
Every new York building
In the sky

Every ..
train
Late at night
Every group of friends
I pass by
Every joke
Or tear
I cry
Every little thing
I can't seem to burn
No matter how many
New bridges I turn

But

I wrote you this letter to say goodbye
I know deep inside
You're gone
So I wrote you this letter
To finally move on
The only next step




... burn my whole ******* house down
