Wire - Another the Letter lyrics

Pa**ed 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, like a series of shocks Like a series of shocks, like a series of shocks Like a series of shocks, but the contents are known Oh faint heart, when the letter arrives You suddenly find things getting life-size Life-size, life-size Life-size, life-size Once the air rang with things unsaid Now cruel outlines are easily read Behind the curtain, in the yellow bulb light In the yellow bulb light, in the yellow bulb light In the yellow bulb light, in the yellow bulb light In the yellow bulb light, in the yellow bulb light The letter reads, "I took my own life"
