Dear Sweet Filthy World Lyrics

Dear sweet, filthy world, my wife
Or whoever reads this
I think that I've lived too long
With all of my promise unfulfilled
But there is a veil drawn over all of that

I am not leaving you
With all of your problems
'Cause the biggest one is me
Life is dark and cold as the sea

Put seaweed in my hair
And vow that you won't cry
Because I've gone, I can't go on
I can't go on, I can't go on
I must close now
