Send Me A Letter Downstream

(Shannon Murray)

I know this might sound profoundly pessimistic
But how can so many things be so fucked up and so many people just miss it

Won’t you send me a letter downstream
Something I could touch something I could feel
Won’t you send me a letter downstream
Something I could touch something I could feel

Everyday now it seems our future just gets dimmer and dimmer (somebody shout Amen)
And if one more asshole calls my mother demanding money I swear

Oh
Won’t you send me a letter downstream
Something I could touch something I could feel
Won’t you send me a letter downstream
Something I could touch something I could feel

I don’t want to be here, I don’t want to be here
I just want to be home you see
It’s not that bad trading your dreams for minimum wage slavery
It just runs in the family

Won’t you send me a letter downstream
Something I could touch something I could feel
Won’t you send me a letter downstream
Something I could touch something I could feel

This song, all this singing can’t even support
Hell I can’t even support myself
And I feel so sorry, so sad, so ashamed I can’t think of anything else to say

Won’t you send me a letter downstream
Something I could touch something I could feel
Won’t you send me a letter downstream
Send me your fear
