Thanks For The Letter (from A Kinder Gentler Amer Lyrics

Laying in my bed tonight

Before I GOT MYSELF up to write this song*

2 AM, 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!



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 remember when



See, there's sometimes when I feel really alone

'Cause I don't really have any friends 

And I don't fit in at school

The gym coach call 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 don't have nothing against homosexuals

And the gym teacher is an asshole

I think the things you say are important

Thanks a lot,

Keep fighting..."



Thanks for the letter that you sent

Reminding me not to give in
