He wants to be just like you manhe likes you more
than I do.
I ain t that madthough I just don t like bein lied to.
Remember when we met in Denver? You said if I write you
You would write back. SeeI m just like you in a way.
I never knew my father neither
He used to always cheat on my mom and beat her.
I can relate to what you re sayin in your songs.
So when I have a shitty dayI drift away and put em on.
Cause I don t really got shit elseso that shit helps
when I m depressed.
I even got a tattoo with your name across the chest.
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds.
It s like adrenaline. The Pain is such a sudden rush for me.
Seeeverything you say is realand I respect you
cause you tell it.
My girlfriend s jealous cause I talk about you 24/7.
But she don t know you like I know youSlimno one does.
She don t know what it was like for people like us growing up.

Dear StanI meant to write you soonerbut I ve just been busy.
You said your girlfriend s pregnant nowhow far along is she?
LookI m really flatterd you d call your daughter that.
And here s an autograph for your brother: I wrote it
on the Starter cap.
I m sorry I didn t see you at the showI must have missed you.
Don t think I did that shit intentionallyjust to diss you.
but what s this shit you said about you
like to cut your wrists too?
I say that shit just clownin dog
c monhow fucked up is she?
You got some issuesStanI think you need some counselin
To help your ass from bouncin off the
walls when you get down some.
And what s this shit about us meant to be together?
That type of shit ll make me not want us to meet each other.
I really think you and your girlfriend need each other.
Or maybe you just need to treat her better.
I hope you get to read this letter.
I just hope it reaches you in time.
Before you hurt yourselfI think that you d be doin
just fine
If you d relax a little. I m glad that I inspire youbut Stan
Why are you so mad? Try to understand that I do want
you as a fan.
I just don t want you to do some crazy shit.
I seen this one shit on the news a couple weeks ago
that made me sick.
Some dude was drunk and drove his car over a bridge
And had his girlfriend in the trunk and she was
pregnant with his kid
And in the car they found a tape but it didn t say who
it was to
Come to think about it...his name was...it was you.
Damn.
