Thanks For The Letter (from A Kinder, Gentler America) Lyrics - Singles - Justin Sane

Laying in my bed tonight- 

Before I got myself up to write this song 

2AM - paper/pen - contemplating 

The struggle we're engaged in - 

Does anybody really even care? 

But then I thought of your letter and I knew better! 

So I'll do it again - yeah I'll sing it again 

For my family, myself, my friends, THE KIDS! 

[Chorus:] 

Thanks for the letter that you sent 

Reminding me not to give in! 

"Dear Punk Rock Star: 

I'm just kidding - but I like to call you that now and then just for fun. 

I like your attitude. 

I like your songs, I've been a really big fan since I can't remember when? 

See there are some times when I feel really alone, 

cause I don't really have any friends, and I don't fit in at school. 

The gym coach called me a "fag" in front of the entire class, 

so now everyone puts me down by saying I'm gay. 

But I don't care because I have nothing against homosexuals 

and the gym teacher is an asshole! 

I think the things you say are important. 

Thanks a lot. 

Keep fighting!" 

[Chorus] 

Thanks for the letter that you sent 

Reminding me not to give in!
