set your eyes right on the page
scribble out what you need to say
don't mind the tears they'll fade away
just try to write down why "it hurts to stay"

focus on the ink, i know it's blurred
but you can't go yet without being heard
you need to tell them about the pain
"please understand, it's hard to explain"

one page is good but two is better
you've never written this type of letter
you know it's something they deserve to find
"this is all that could be left behind"

put down the pen and sign your name
get it over with before you start placing blame
lift and pull, fall to your knees
"don't ever lose the memories"
