lyrics

Dear Lainie,
Here's a letter, I hope it finds you well
And I hope you're doing better than me

I'll let you know of progress
But progress has been slow
Oh god, it's been too slow

And Lainie I've been thinking for weeks, for months
About giving up
On those dreams you slipped into my pocket
Now they're all crumpled up
And torn at the edges

Like notes left by old friends
Before that long drive home

Honestly, do you still believe in me?

Lainie, lately I've been waiting for you
To do those things you do

Like help my feet reach the shore
Turn my whispers into roars
Dear Lainie, reignite my soul once more

There's a fire burning out and we're so low on gasoline
No more fight beyond the alcohol and the chemicals it seems

I feel a pain here in my backbone and I'm getting way too old
But I won't let this go,
I will not let this go

help my feet reach the shore
Turn my whispers into roars
Lainie, you're adrenaline for my weary soul
And my apathetic bones

Lainie, reignite my soul once more.
