Lyrics

[Verse 1]
500 letters from a stranger at my door
500 letters, words like scars no one can see
[Verse 2]
It felt so innocent, a childish game
Lines of poetry without a name
Waves of paranoia washed upon the page
And soon obsession turned to rage
Why do you love me?
Why do you want to hurt me?
[Verse 3]
500 letters from a stranger at my door
500 weapons, I can't take it anymore
500 letters, words like scars no one can see
500 secrets slowly killing me
[Verse 4]
At the mercy of a violent hand
Drawing images in my head
I can't escape the way I feel inside
In every shadow, just a breath behind
Why do you love me?
Why do you want to hurt me?
[Verse 5]
500 letters from a stranger at my door
500 weapons, I can't take it anymore
500 letters, words like scars no one can see
500 secrets slowly killing me
[Verse 6]
They found a final letter lying by his side
A smile was on his face, cold as ice
One last message written only for me
Now you won't forget, I see you in your dreams  " Now you won't forget I see you in your dreams"
[Verse 7]
500 letters from a stranger at my door
500 weapons, I can't take it anymore
500 letters, words like scars no one can see
500 secrets slowly killing me
