Lyrics
I sit alone and think of what to write to you next...
I contemplate in solitude about my next message to you...
to you I could write a million words and only say one thing
To you, I could express a million words, yet convey only one sentiment.
I'm sure you don't have the time to read what I have to say...
I'm aware you may not have the time to read my extensive thoughts...
(it's okay)
(Acknowledging and accepting the potential lack of time on your part)
We started off exchanging a few words
We initiated with a few words, evolving into something emotionally significant.
and it turned into something close to home
Our interaction became intimately connected to my personal life.
I would sit right by my mailbox, and wait patiently
I would eagerly wait by my mailbox, unaware it would be in vain...
didn't know it would never come...
(Realizing the letters anticipated would never arrive)
It's been a year and I've saved all of your letters
A year has passed, yet I've preserved all the letters from you...
retrace the lines, I know you can't be mine
Examining the words, I acknowledge the impossibility of our connection.
I know I'll make it out of this alive
I am confident that I will survive this challenging experience.
I know I'll make it out alive
(Reaffirming the belief in personal strength and resilience)
I'll take this pen and stab it in your back
Metaphorically, I express the pain by intending harm with a pen.
Just like you did to me
Comparing the inflicted pain to what I experienced from you.
I Hope You Hear Me, I'm tearing up your letters
Expressing a desire for you to understand my emotional turmoil, destroying your letters.
I hope I don't "see you soon"
Expressing a hope to avoid encountering you anytime soon.
I'll take these words and throw them at your back
Symbolically, I throw hurtful words at you, mirroring your actions.
Just like you did to me
Highlighting the reciprocity of emotional pain caused by both parties.
I Hope You Hear Me, I'm tearing up your letters
Reiterating the destruction of your letters as a means of communication.
I hope I don't "see you soon"
Expressing a wish to avoid encountering you in the near future.
