about

Written after being alone for some time, hearing my former partner complain how difficult it was for them living with other people. At the time, I wished I had ANYONE to live with!

lyrics

When I look for you, you’re never around
Always flying in the sky, or underground
Your voice, when you call me, is my favorite sound
One day, maybe I’ll find you in the lost and found

So, this is why I wrote you this letter
I’m sorry if you’re under the weather
I doubt that this will make you feel better
But I’m sorry, I’m just not that clever
Maybe it’s easy for you to pull the lever
Cut ties, our relationship severed
But goodbye isn’t easy for me ever
I’m just saying for me, it’s no better

When you look for me, I’m always around
I love you always, you can have no doubt
I’ll always use your chosen gender pronoun
I’ll always be here when you’re feeling down

So, this is why I wrote you this letter
I’m sorry if you’re under the weather
I doubt that this will make you feel better
But I’m sorry, I’m just not that clever
Maybe it’s easy for you to pull the lever
Cut ties, our relationship severed
But goodbye isn’t easy for me ever
I’m just saying for me, it’s no better

Life always seems such a merry-go-round
Spinning in place, a blur, a din of sound
Emotions seem exaggerated like a clown’s
Isolation makes you feel like you’re about to drown

When I look for you, you’re never around
Always flying in the sky, or underground
Your voice, when you call me, is my favorite sound
One day, maybe I’ll find you in the lost and found

So, this is why I wrote you this letter
I’m sorry if you’re under the weather
I doubt that this will make you feel better
But I’m sorry, I’m just not that clever
Maybe it’s easy for you to pull the lever
Cut ties, our relationship severed
But goodbye isn’t easy for me ever
I’m just saying for me, it’s no better

So, this is why I wrote you this letter
I’m sorry if you’re under the weather
I doubt that this will make you feel better
But I’m sorry, I’m just not that clever
Maybe it’s easy for you to pull the lever
Cut ties, our relationship severed
But goodbye isn’t easy for me ever
I’m just saying, I love you forever
