Lyrics

Dead Letters

[Verse 1]

The time has passed for show and tell

Get it together, you owe yourself

I hold your last deleted mail

And all these dead letters I'll read in hell

[Chorus]

Give up

Imagining I had it easy

Give up

Pretending you haven't haunted me lately

Don't be crazy

[Verse 2]

You're telescoping space and time

There's no difference between your place or mine

I'm waking up expecting calls

And wondering if you're ever there at all

[Chorus]

Give up

Imagining I had it easy

Give up

Pretending you haven't haunted me lately

Don't be crazy

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]

Give up

Imagining I had it easy

Give up

Tryna give what we've done any meaning

Give up

Imagining I had it easy

Give up

Pretending you haven't haunted me lately

Don't be crazy
