Penpals

Your ink is heavy my ink is light
The paper's darker than a boston sunday night
But it's alright
Because I'm glad you called I felt so lonely
9-5 in a city full of phonies
With their black ties
But your black eyes

And the letters in my head
Under my bed keep screaming
Keep calm keep breathing
I'll come visit you sooner than you think
But I still drink and drink
Hoping you will come home

When I'm alone again

She's rooms away
We're miles apart
She's in my bed
And you're still in my heart
It's a start

And my lungs are brick
My heart is stone
I can't pick up your calls
On the telephone

But the letters in my head
Under my bed keep screaming
Keep calm keep breathing
I'll come visit you sooner than you think
But I still drink and drink
Hoping you will come home
