1st Verse: (intro riff)
Dear Claudia,
you should try not to sleep with your best friend's boyfriend
You've come so far since that time when you let
your first boy in

I will let you in before you break yourself
(intro riff)
It's true that you like to sleep around,
enjoy it with your backside on the ground
but you should know that it's not your fault
your father killed himself
2nd Verse: (intro riff, transitional riff)
Dear Claudia,
you leave pieces of you in each bed you lay in
and when you're done
there will be somebody else wearing your skin
And you do it so carelessly,
as if you had no self esteem
A victim of apathy
but you don't care what people say about you
I will let you in before you break yourself
It's true that you like to sleep around
enjoy it with your backside on the ground
but you should know that it's not your fault
your father killed himself
I will lay your fears right here next to mine
and when we close our eyes, we'll be entwined
Extended 3rd Verse: (intro riff, transitional riff)
Dear Claudia,
you should try not to sleep with your best friend's boyfriend
You've come so far since that time when you let
your first boy in
And you do it so carelessly
as if you had no self esteem
A victim of apathy
but you don't care what people say about you
Little Claudia,
you must find another way
You must forgive yourself
cause it's not your fault I killed my--
I will let you in before you break yourself
Chorus/Outro:
It's true that you like to sleep around
enjoy it with your backside on the ground
but you should know that it's not your fault
your father killed himself
Little Claudia,
I will forgive you
