Hello
Your letter did not find me well
Cause I’m still broken by your spell
And so I listen again to the melody
That once was anything but this wall between you and me
Just float back to the top
And get the smiles on
You’ve got to work through this
Even when the world’s weight piles on
Hello
Your letters did not find me well
The thought was nice but I’m still a broken shell
And so I listen again to the melody
That was once anything but this wall between you and me

I don’t know why you look for answers
When the solution is so clear
You bathe yourself in these waters
And I insist that it’s out of fear
It’s like I’m always telling you:
You know Jesus loves you, but not like I do
You don’t have to eat my flesh to see what I can do
I don’t know why you still believe
I guess it’s easier to go with the flow
But it’s so obvious if you just think
I’ve given you all you need to know
It’s like I’m always telling you:
You know Jesus loves you, but not like I do
You don’t have to drink my blood to see what I can do
It’s like I’m always telling you
And I swear that every word is true
You know Jesus loves you, but not like I do
You don’t have to eat my flesh to see what I can do
You know Jesus loves you, but not like I do
You don’t have to drink my blood to see what I can do

As I’ve said before, there’s nothing left to do
Counting the days while I pine for you
And while the weeks will pass me by
Well-being could be no further from my mind
Oh, woe is me…
Oh, woe is me…
I won’t admit that this can be used
Salt the wound, and long be it my muse
I’ll hold the torch, though it may be wrong
But at least I’ll write another dozen songs
Oh, woe is me…
Oh, woe is me…
To love and have lost…
Oh, woe is me…

I know I have no right to reach out tonight
That you needn’t hear any more of my plight
But I just need to make it exceptionally clear
Exactly what you have done to me, my dear
And now that I have your attention
I knew if I went to you with what I have to say
I could already see the venom due my way
But we need a win for this to be fight
And I just need to be the one who is right
And now that I have your attention
Let’s not say a word that we will regret
Cause the tree will remember what the axe is sure to forget
Intrusive thoughts of you
Course through my spine
Whenever I remember
But I tell myself I’m fine
Just bury, bury, bury
Til the anger loses sway
Just bury, bury, bury
Til all feeling goes away
Before too long it returns to the front
And I find myself back at the start
Reveling in this rage anew
The only way to protect the parts
Of my heart that still remain
I find it easier to explain
That this is your doing, and only you
Than accept that I played my part too
And now that I have your attention
(Draw it away from me)
And now that I have your attention
(Pretend that I’m guilt-free)
Let’s not say a word that we will regret
Cause the tree will remember what the axe is sure to forget
Now let’s not say a word that we will regret
Cause the tree will remember what the axe is sure to forget
The axe is sure to forget
