Mailbox Arson Songtext / Lyric

your mail's not safe in this town

your mail's not safe in this town

your mail's not safe in this town

your mail's not safe in this town



i strike a red bird on your face

i pour the kerosene in your mouth

i watch the match fall down your throat

i burn all your precious bowels

watch the smoke fold for every crack

and breathe in your secret lives

all your bills pay your welfare checks

but i don't think i can stay for long

there's a lot more that's not yet ash



your mail's not safe in this town

your mail's not safe in this town

your mail's not safe in this town

well i'm taking this town back






i watch the smoke start to rise

one hundred homes

one hundred fires

everything you own now burns away

this town is no longer mine

its fucked with me for the last time

how i wish that i could see your face



when the sky is streaked with plumes

know that it's my signature

upon this wretched fucking city



mailbox arson, my sweet revenge

mailbox arson, my sweet revenge



strike a match and burn away every tie that binds me to this place

strike a match and burn away every tie that binds me to this place

i will strike a match and burn away every tie that binds me to this place

strike a match and burn away every tie that binds me to this place.



when the smoke clears

you can consider us even



your mail's not safe in this town

your mail's not safe in this town

your mail's not safe in this town

i'm taking this town back



i watch the smoke start to rise

one hundred homes

one hundred fires

everything you own now burned away

this town is no longer mine

it's fucked with me for the last time

how i wish that i could see your face
