Coffee Stained Thank You Cards

Coffee Stained Thank You Cards

All those coffee stained thank you cards
That never got sent
I put em’ in a box
I dug a hole in the yard
Behind the fence
And buried em’ with the dog
But I swear last night that I heard zombies at the door
Saying “You’re welcome very much” in a sarcastic tone
Unchecked, To Do, crumpled up, forgotten souls
They groaned, They groaned

There’s nowhere to hide
You can’t run from yourself
There’s no escape from the inside
You’re buried by the bell

I drove a thousand miles
to a dive motel
Where the walls don’t know my name
Familiar faces rose
Like ghosts from Hell
And smothered me in shame
They said it was me who put that hurt look in their eyes
Then they lifted up the rug and showed me my sins
Translucent, blurry shapes, a vague sound of cries
I said “You win! You win!”

There’s nowhere to hide
You can’t run from yourself
There’s no escape from the inside
You’re buried by the bell

So I’ll lay across the sand
Let the tide pull me in
Kick back and stop making plans
Surrender and start a, surrender and start again, Surrender and start again, Surrender and start a...

There’s nowhere to hide
You can’t run from yourself
There’s no escape from the inside
You’re buried by the bell
