500 Letters Lyrics

500 letters from a stranger at my door...
500 letters, words like scars no one can see...

It felt so innocent, a childish game,
Lines of poetry, without a name.
Words of paranoia, washed upon a page
And seems obsession, turns to rage.

Why do you love me?
Why do you want to hurt me?

500 letters from a stranger at my door
500 weapons i can't take it anymore
500 letters, words like scars noone can see
500 secrets, slowly killing me.

At the mercy of a violent hand
Throwing inches, in my head
I can't escape the way I feel inside
In every shadow, just a breath behind.

Why do you love me?
Why do you want to hurt me?

500 letters from a stranger at my door.
500 weapons i can't take it anymore
500 letters, words like scars no one can see.
500 secrets, slowly killing me.

They found the final letter lying by his side,
A smile was on his face, cold as ice.
One last message written only for me,
Now you won't forget: I'll see you in your dreams.

500 letters from the stranger at my door.
500 weapons i can't take it anymore
500 letters, words like scars no one can see.
500 secrets, slowly killing me.

Cover art for 500 Letters lyrics by Tarja

It seems like she's singing about a stalker who kills himself at the end with a final letter for her. I wouldn't be surprised if Tarja has had some stalkers and this is written from experience (adding the suicide for dramatic effect).
