lyrics

THERE’S A LETTER ©Angry Johnny And The Killbillies
-Bonesaw Lullaby BMI

There’s a letter on my table it came for me today
But I’m afraid to open it still I can’t throw it away
I know already what it says I know it says we’re through
That letter on my table that letter sent from you

That letter on my table is written in your hand
I know it will say something like I hope you’ll understand
We cannot be together but I hope we can be friends
You might as well have stabbed me through the heart with that old pen

There’s a bottle on that letter holding all that bad news down
All the news that’s already known all over this town
A list of my short-comings and a list of all my sins
A list of all the reasons that I’m never gonna win

So I won’t read what I already know you’ve written to me
I refuse to read your sweetly penned goodbyes
The only thing I’m reading is the label on this whiskey
It kills the taste while swallowing the lies

And someone is gonna find that unread letter in my hand
Yeah someone’s gonna find me on the floor
The reaper came to me dressed up just like the mail man
And killed me through the slot in my front door

I get on with my days
In a permanent haze
People think it’s a phase
But my madness is growing…

This album grows on me more and more with each listen. Bodner's approach to taking traditional music and reworking it and weaving it into his own personal narrative is amazing. On Into Grace, his own narrative is in the forefront. mad_wanderer
