The words to that song I finally wrote...

(Fm C Eb Bb)
I'm writing to thank you
for building me a shell
I hope you can afford it
Hope you're getting well
I crawled into that car stereo
Inside I hear you
quoting Dostoyevsky
(by yourself)

(Bridge? Verse? Whatever. Bb Eb C Eb)
I hope everything is as I left it
I hope all those strings are in order
You know they're precious
I wish all these hemlines still fit
But I know it's just a test
to see if we still exist

(And back to...)
I'm writing to thank you
for building me a shell
The less light bounces off you
the more you are yourself
and I am someone else

(I am going to try to record it/make it nice, but I have an embarrassing lack of microphone)

  1. Except now I'm having one of those moments that's like "Oh, I might have stolen the melody for this song..." I wonder who I stole it from.

  3. No... this is something entirely different. I promise that one will come, though.
