[00:01.84] My teas gone cold Im wondering why I..
[00:06.02] got out of bed at all
[00:07.73] The morning rain clouds up my window..
[00:11.20] and I cant see at all
[00:13.68] And even if I could itll all be gray,
[00:17.12] but your picture on my wall
[00:19.62] It reminds me, that its not so bad,
[00:23.35] its not so bad..
[00:25.94] My teas gone cold Im wondering why I..
[00:29.27] got out of bed at all
[00:31.74] The morning rain clouds up my window..
[00:34.98] and I cant see at all
[00:37.67] And even if I could itll all be gray,
[00:41.32] but your picture on my wall
[00:43.60] It reminds me, that its not so bad,
[00:46.12] its not so bad..
[00:49.74] Dear Slim, I wrote but you still aint callin
[00:51.85] I left my cell, my pager, and my home phone at the bottom
[00:54.85] I sent two letters back in autumn, you must not-a got em
[00:57.78] There probably was a problem at the post office or somethin
[01:00.84] Sometimes I scribble addresses too sloppy when I jot em
[01:03.80] but anyways; fuck it, whats been up? Man hows your daughter?
[01:06.86] My girlfriends pregnant too, Im bout to be a father
[01:09.47] If I have a daughter, guess what Ima call her?
[01:11.89] Ima name her Bonnie
[01:13.55] I read about your Uncle Ronnie too Im sorry
[01:15.79] I had a friend kill himself over some bitch who didnt want him
[01:18.85] I know you probably hear this everyday, but Im your biggest fan
[01:22.43] I even got the underground shit that you did with Skam
[01:25.58] I got a room full of your posters and your pictures man
[01:28.21] I like the shit you did with Rawkus too, that shit was fat
[01:30.59] Anyways, I hope you get this man, hit me back,
[01:34.35] just to chat, truly yours, your biggest fan
[01:36.65] This is Stan
[01:37.80] My teas gone cold Im wondering why I..
[01:40.96] got out of bed at all
[01:43.81] The morning rain clouds up my window..
[01:46.77] and I cant see at all
[01:52.41] And even if I could itll all be gray,
[01:53.58] but your picture on my wall
[01:55.78] It reminds me, that its not so bad,
[01:59.25] its not so bad..
[02:00.92] Dear Slim, you still aint called or wrote, I hope you have a chance
[02:04.11] I aint mad - I just think its FUCKED UP you dont answer fans
[02:07.38] If you didnt wanna talk to me outside your concert
[02:09.91] you didnt have to, but you coulda signed an autograph for Matthew
[02:13.04] Thats my little brother man, hes only six years old
[02:15.54] We waited in the blistering cold for you,
[02:17.32] four hours and you just said, No.
[02:19.48] Thats pretty shitty man - youre like his fuckin idol
[02:21.74] He wants to be just like you man, he likes you more than I do
[02:24.81] I aint that mad though, I just dont like bein lied to
[02:27.79] Remember when we met in Denver - you said if Id write you
[02:30.94] you would write back - see Im just like you in a way
[02:33.33] I never knew my father neither;
[02:35.19] he used to always cheat on my mom and beat her
[02:37.32] I can relate to what youre saying in your songs
[02:39.68] so when I have a shitty day, I drift away and put em on
[02:42.53] cause I dont really got shit else so that shit helps when Im depressed
[02:45.70] I even got a tattoo of your name across the chest
[02:48.79] Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds
[02:51.76] Its like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me
[02:54.59] See everything you say is real, and I respect you cause you tell it
[02:57.67] My girlfriends jealous cause I talk about you 24/7
[03:00.64] But she dont know you like I know you Slim, no one does
[03:03.72] She dont know what it was like for people like us growin up
[03:06.82] You gotta call me man, Ill be the biggest fan youll ever lose
[03:09.74] Sincerely yours, Stan -- P.S.
[03:11.38] We should be together too
[03:12.89] My teas gone cold Im wondering why I..
[03:17.17] got out of bed at all
[03:19.57] The morning rain clouds up my window..
[03:23.31] and I cant see at all
[03:25.59] And even if I could itll all be gray,
[03:29.20] but your picture on my wall
[03:31.51] It reminds me, that its not so bad,
[03:35.08] its not so bad..
[03:37.17] Dear Mister-Im-Too-Good-To-Call-Or-Write-My-Fans,
[03:39.76] thisll be the last package I ever send your ass
[03:44.40] Its been six months and still no word - I dont deserve it?
[03:45.45] I know you got my last two letters;
[03:45.93] I wrote the addresses on em perfect
[03:48.75] So this is my cassette Im sending you, I hope you hear it
[03:51.83] Im in the car right now, Im doing 90 on the freeway
[03:54.69] Hey Slim, I drank a fifth of vodka, you dare me to drive?
[03:58.32] You know the song by Phil Collins, In the Air of the Night
[04:00.82] about that guy who coulda saved that other guy from drowning
[04:03.73] but didnt, then Phil saw it all, then at a a show he found him?
[04:06.75] Thats kinda how this is, you coulda rescued me from drowning
[04:09.71] Now its too late - Im on a 1000 downers now, Im drowsy
[04:12.97] and all I wanted was a lousy letter or a call
[04:15.73] I hope you know I ripped +ALL+ of your pictures off the wall
[04:18.76] I love you Slim, we coulda been together, think about it
[04:22.30] You ruined it now, I hope you cant sleep and you dream about it
[04:25.25] And when you dream I hope you cant sleep and you SCREAM about it
[04:28.15] I hope your conscience EATS AT YOU and you cant BREATHE without me
[04:31.54]
[04:35.26] Hey Slim, thats my girlfriend screamin in the trunk
[04:36.78] but I didnt slit her throat, I just tied her up, see I aint like you
[04:39.85] cause if she suffocates shell suffer more, and then shell die too
[04:42.78] Well, gotta go, Im almost at the bridge now
[04:45.98] Oh shit, I forgot, howm I supposed to send this shit out?
[05:01.92] My teas gone cold Im wondering why I..
[05:04.80] got out of bed at all
[05:07.55] The morning rain clouds up my window..
[05:11.26] and I cant see at all
[05:13.79] And even if I could itll all be gray,
[05:17.18] but your picture on my wall
[05:19.50] It reminds me, that its not so bad,
[05:23.14] its not so bad..
[05:24.94] Dear Stan, I meant to write you sooner but I just been busy
[05:27.61] You said your girlfriends pregnant now, how far along is she?
[05:30.74] Look, Im really flattered you would call your daughter that
[05:33.62] and heres an autograph for your brother,
[05:35.79] I wrote it on the Starter cap
[05:37.52] Im sorry I didnt see you at the show, I musta missed you
[05:40.24] Dont think I did that shit intentionally just to diss you
[05:43.23] But whats this shit you said about you like to cut your wrists too?
[05:46.20] I say that shit just clownin dogg,
[05:48.33] cmon - how fucked up is you?
[05:49.49] You got some issues Stan, I think you need some counseling
[05:52.02] to help your ass from bouncing off the walls when you get down some
[05:55.16] And whats this shit about us meant to be together?
[05:58.77] That type of shitll make me not want us to meet each other
[06:00.88] I really think you and your girlfriend need each other
[06:03.66] or maybe you just need to treat her better
[06:06.31] I hope you get to read this letter, I just hope it reaches you in time
[06:09.69] before you hurt yourself, I think that youll be doin just fine
[06:12.75] if you relax a little, Im glad I inspire you but Stan
[06:15.67] why are you so mad? Try to understand, that I do want you as a fan
[06:19.48] I just dont want you to do some crazy shit
[06:21.60] I seen this one shit on the news a couple weeks ago that made me sick
[06:25.08] Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
[06:27.70] and had his girlfriend in the trunk, and she was pregnant with his kid
[06:30.66] and in the car they found a tape, but they didnt say who it was to
[06:33.61] Come to think about, his name was.. it was you
[06:36.77] Damn!
