Lyrics for Another the Letter
Passed to hand, behind the curtain The letter brings change, now things are uncertain Hand to hand, the letter moves on Like a series of shocks, but the contents are known Oh faint heart, when the letter arrives You suddenly find things getting life-size Once the air rang with things unsaid Now cruel outlines are easily read Behind the curtain, in the yellow bulb light The letter reads: I took my own life
