Unwritten Letter

from Smoke Signals by No King. No Crown.

lyrics

I left my house, I was not here.
Strange things happen when protective light has disappeared.
The lack of brightness brings uncertainty, it’s true. It’s so true.
So, I returned, my throat got sore.
Found a piece of paper laying on the basement floor.
Familiar hand, familiar writing. I did receive a letter from my enemy.
my hands were shaking while trying to unfold (it.,
When silence came, the clock had stopped, the room was cold.
The lack of ease and comfort brings insecurity.
I tried to read aloud, but my voice was all gone,
had the time come to confess what in all my life went wrong?
Familiar hand, familiar writing. I did receive a letter from my better me.
You should stop being selfish,
give back what you‘ve taken.
Give back what you‘ve taken.
To find salvation, you are lost in booze,
forgot the words you said and things you did promise, too.
if you search for excuses, you will die alone.
Don’t tell your stories, just tell the truth.
You’ll become a lonesome man, if you will continue.
if you keep having secrets, you will die alone.
I woke up,
was drenched in sweat.
Was searching for excuses but should change instead.
Is a bad dream going to reshape myself?
