The Letter Songtext
von Machinations

Caught, I got caught again
Caught out in the rain
Taught, it taught me a lesson
Get it right, don′t go out, late at night
Sought after recognition
Tried to fill a new position
In my life, I tried to get it right

You got a real admission
Of the guilt that I've kept hidden
Deep inside, I thought
Get it out, don′t try to hide it away
Hoping it would help the strain
I wrote this letter
But salt in wounds don't ease the pain
Got swallowed by the jaws of the angel once again


(You got the letter)
Don't pretend you didn′t
(It got the better)
Of your curiosity
(You go the letter)
And I wish you hadn′t
Now you wonder whether
You're really surprised
But you′re doing alright, cause you know it's addressed to me

Finding out the price of freedom
Hiding from the one who′s leading me astray
I knew, I had to try, try to get away
But I found there's no escape
When I wrote the letter
Its contents really sealed my fate
I fell into the wake of the angel once again

(You got the letter)
Don′t pretend you didn't
(It got the better)
Of your curiosity
(You got the letter)
And I wish you hadn't
Now you wonder whether
You′re really surprised
But you′re doing alright, cause you know it's addressed to me

(Letter, letter, letter)

(Letter, letter, letter)

(Letter, letter, letter, letter)


Leave it alone, baby leave it, leave it
The devil′s in my soul, baby just can't leave it
You got the letter, but please don′t read it
You got the better of me

(You got the letter)
(Finding out the price of freedom)
Don't pretend you didn′t
(It got the better)
Of your curiosity
(You got the letter)
(Finding out the price of freedom)
And I wish you hadn't
Now you wonder whether
You're really surprised
But you′re doing alright, cause you know it′s addressed to me

You know it's a tragedy

(You got the letter)
(Finding out the price of freedom)
Don′t pretend you didn't
(It got the better)
Of your curiosity
(You got the letter)
(Finding out the price of freedom)
And I wish you hadn′t
Now you wonder whether
You're really surprised
But you′re doing alright, cause you know it's addressed to me

You know it's a tragedy

(You got the letter)
(Finding out the price of freedom)
Don′t pretend you didn′t
(It got the better)
Of your curiosity
(You got the letter)
(Finding out the price of freedom)
And I wish you hadn't
Now you wonder whether
You′re really surprised
But you're doing alright, cause you know it′s addressed to me

(You got the letter)
(Finding out the price of freedom)
Don't pretend you didn′t
(It got the better)
Of your curiosity
(You got the letter)
