lyrics

i gotta set aside time each day to contemplate my wrongs
it's a condition of my release but i would do it anyway
and i've been saving up a bit of cash to go surprise my mom
she ain't seen hide nor hair of me since my arraignment day

now i know you told me to save myself the postage
but i'm gonna send this one anyway and you don't have to open it
and rest assured it's full of love that's clean and strong
and promises small enough that i can't help but keep them

with half a mind to win you back i got a little car
four seatbelts, seven airbags, bought and paid for
i can drive it past your place of work on my way to mine
i can see you through the window, joking with the girls, rolling silverware

now i know you told me to save myself the postage
but i'm gonna send this one anyway and you don't have to open it
and rest assured it's full of love that's clean and strong
and promises vague enough that i can't help but keep them

i know beyond doubt that i am out of credit
but i'd do another year to face you on equal footing
