Unsent Letter by Machine Gun Fellatio Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I tried to talk to you
And can't get past the weather
The friend I thought I knew
Found somethin' somewhere better
So I'm hanging on your line
Thought we could speak together
Tell me what it is with you
You seem gone forever
[Chorus]
I'm spendin' all my time
Driving 'round, fakin' clever
With a girl who seems alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone
[Verse 2]
I know what could have been
Try not to think about it
Found it hard to live with this
And longed to live without it
My dreams have caught me out
I find myself surrounded
By the odds of our own end
Enough said about it
[Chorus]
I'm spendin' all my time
Driving 'round, fakin' clever
With a girl who seems alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone
[Bridge]
I've given up something
I guess that doesn't matter
I've started other things
I guess that doesn't matter
I finally wrote your song
Another unsent letter
In a pile addressed to you
Care of: Somethin' somewhere better
[Chorus]
I'm spendin' all my time
Driving 'round, fakin' clever
With a girl who seems alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone
I'm spendin' all my time
Driving 'round, fakin' clever
With a girl who seems alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone forever
[Outro]
Yeah, I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone forever
Yeah, I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone forever
Yeah, I try to talk to you
Somehow you seem gone
I tried to talk to you
And can't get past the weather
The friend I thought I knew
Found somethin' somewhere better
So I'm hanging on your line
Thought we could speak together
Tell me what it is with you
You seem gone forever
[Chorus]
I'm spendin' all my time
Driving 'round, fakin' clever
With a girl who seems alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone
[Verse 2]
I know what could have been
Try not to think about it
Found it hard to live with this
And longed to live without it
My dreams have caught me out
I find myself surrounded
By the odds of our own end
Enough said about it
[Chorus]
I'm spendin' all my time
Driving 'round, fakin' clever
With a girl who seems alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone
[Bridge]
I've given up something
I guess that doesn't matter
I've started other things
I guess that doesn't matter
I finally wrote your song
Another unsent letter
In a pile addressed to you
Care of: Somethin' somewhere better
[Chorus]
I'm spendin' all my time
Driving 'round, fakin' clever
With a girl who seems alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone
I'm spendin' all my time
Driving 'round, fakin' clever
With a girl who seems alright
And another one who's better
I don't know if I lied
When I said we're not together
But I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone forever
[Outro]
Yeah, I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone forever
Yeah, I try to talk to you
Somehow, you seem gone forever
Yeah, I try to talk to you
Somehow you seem gone
