Letters to a Dead Man lyrics - Rock

by Victoria Whitlock
(Parrottsville, TN)

Letters to a Dead Man lyrics

Too many lines on a rap sheet
No patter of little feet
They weren’t up to speed
No, not one of your needs
Just a misplaced seed

You could have stopped it all
With just one f*cking call
I had my back against the wall
But you let me take the fall
You weren’t in it for the long haul

Was it a disease?
Or were we just trying to please
I’m still waiting for release
Come on, don’t be my biggest tease
Just this once, bring me to my knees

You stopped your pain
Winning hand lethal vein
Three lives wasted on shame
A woman with the wrong last name
Oh, just bring down the rain

I buried our son alone
How could you have already gone?
All this is so f*cking wrong
He just needed to belong
Don’t you know that’s why he went along?

Was it a disease?
Or were we just trying to please
I’m still waiting for release
Come on, don’t be my biggest tease
Just this once, bring me to my knees

Rewrite the ending
Give back his beginning
Don’t keep me spinning
You know I hate winning
I always needed you for my finishing

A son with the wrong name
A man lost in the fast lane
A woman filled with shame
A boy you didn’t reclaim
A heart overflowing with pain

Was it a disease?
Or were we just trying to please
I’m waiting for release
Come on, don’t be my biggest tease
Just this once, bring me to my knees
