Lyrics

Dear Susan I hope that you’re doing well
I am feeling better than I could tell
Through a simple letter sent through the mail
I wanted to thank you for

For the time you took to construct the lies
That held me high, so I could look down from the sky
On all the moving people that could not fly
You made me wish they would die

Can you wait?

You carved the cliffs so I couldn’t see the edge
Or ‘member which up was a down-sided lift
I would wait a million years for this
Moment you’d prefer to miss

You raised the dead just to keep me in line
The stories swift, and piercing blue right through rhyme
Or reason - something you made me decline
You made me wish I would die

Can you wait?

Where is she now? She’s not near you at all
And you’ve been walking so proud and so tall
But it was not your doing at all
It came straight out of me

But you would never plant credit as a seed
And I know every trick you have up your sleeve
Every act - greed from far inside
And for that I wish you would die

Can you wait?

Dear Susan I hope that you’re doing well
I’m feeling better than I could tell
Through a simple letter sent through the mail
I wanted to say goodbye
