As she woke up for the final injection
The sickness was hard
When there was no one around
And it spread to her hands
And it spread to her legs
And they felt like the mud from the pond on the ground
That she played in as a kid
What she did to deserve this
While her friends were at parties
She was on the floor, with a mixture of blood
Sweat and tears by her head
That's when she said, can I be dead?
Yeah I've heard that before

So as I'm writing this thank you note
There's just one thing she wanted you to know
Just before she had to go, she said that she liked you

Just hung the painting that we found of London
I never saw the beauty of that city before
As it sat in our basement next to board games and year books
With a faint smell of must, dust and dog food on the floor

So as I'm writing this thank you note
There's just one thing she wanted you to know
Just before she had to go, she said that she liked you

    wow... no one has commented on this one. well before i actually listend to the words this song i wasreally confused. but after really listening and looking at the lyircs, it has a lot of power to it. and the sad tone to it, like the piano, i just almost want to cry. I dunno, i can't really find very much under the lyrics. i am just wondering what the thank you note actually is? is it for the girl that is sick? or is it for someone else (like the girls crush). also when the guy is looking at the picture, maybe that is where he met the girl, but took her for granted, and now that she is dead he comes to realise the beauty and importance of her. and now these memories are just wasting away with the staleness of the bastment. i dunno! it is a well written song though
