A/N: Got a little inspiration from the song "Dear Jamie...Sincerely Me" by Hellogoodbye, and a song I found on YouTube earlier, called "It's Only You" by Tapers Down (ramannoodleking). You can clearly see the inspiration from Hellogoodbye, based on the title, but I promise the song (when I sing it) doesn't actually sound anything like that song. :D Questions? Comments? Concerns? Tell me!


Sincerely Me

I woke up to the sound of you and I
Breaking apart, you left without goodbye
And I was sitting here, writing you a letter
Cuz when I'm talking on paper I sound so much better
These words are so much harder when we're talking face-to-face
There are a million ways to tell you that I'd rather have my space.

And you sound so much sweeter when you're writing me from home
Your words are so much softer when the paper's blank and clear
The messiness you're writing tells me you don't wanna be alone
Those words are so much harder when your voice is all I hear
I hope you're liking all the words you see
Signed sincerely me.

I listen to the sound of you and me
Broken pieces you left but couldn't see
And I will sit in here, writing you a message
Read carefully, this note's a worthless presage
These words were so much harder when we were talking one-on-one
My words are getting staler but it's only just begun.

And you sound so much sweeter when you're writing me from home
Your words are so much softer when the paper's blank and clear
The messiness you're writing tells me you don't wanna be alone
Those words are so much harder when your voice is all I hear
I hope you're liking all the words you see
Signed sincerely me.

And you're coloring me happy as you're writing on my wall
I'm sitting here and wondering if you liked me much at all
Just listen to the words you see
Signed sincerely me.

And you sound so much sweeter when you're writing me from home
Your words are so much softer when the paper's blank and clear
The messiness you're writing tells me you don't wanna be alone
Those words are so much harder when your voice is all I hear
I hope you're liking all the words you see
Signed sincerely me.

Sincerely me
Sincerely me
Signed sincerely me.
