Lyrics

Mailbox

I was afraid

For a while

That things would not be getting any better

That I should be expecting a letter

In my mailbox

Informing me

That your feelings have been whittled

Down to nearly nothing

And oh could you please

Collect up all your things

And leave them in a box

For easy pick up
