lyrics

You wrote a letter to the block of wood who will turn into a man
writing him mostly things that he can't yet understand
letting him know the traffic signs are only there to help
and if you ever find a woman you gotta defend her from yourself

that's it, you can't read anymore 
that's it, you can't look anymore 
that's it, you can't take anymore 
and they took you away
33 short days

you wrote to king David on the funeral of pride 
a thousand times it rose again just when he thought it died 
when those poems found him he was a lonesome little boy
and they took him right to his last breath
with only shouts of joy

but that's it, you can't read anymore 
that's it, you can't look anymore 
that's it, you can't take anymore 
and they took you away
33 short days

you wrote a letter to Jesus which is kind of hard to do 
wondering if you're writing stuff when you don't really need to 
he hated useless words just let your no be no
and he paid attention to the smaller things, the bread and wine at home

but that's it, you can't read anymore 
that's it, you can't look anymore 
that's it, you can't take anymore 
and they took you away
33 short days
