100 Letters (Live from Webster Hall) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, King Midas put his hands on me again
He said one day I'd realize why I don't have any friends
I find myself alone at night unless I'm having sex
But he can make me golden if I just showed some respect

[Refrain]
But I don't let him touch me anymore
I said, "I'm not something to butter up and taste when you get bored
'Cause I have spent too many nights on dirty bathroom floors
To find some peace and quiet right behind a wooden door"

[Pre-Chorus]
He said, "Please don't go away"
He said, "Plеase don't go away"
I said, "It's too late"
I said, "It's too late"
Hе said, "Please don't go away"
He said, "Please don't go away"
(I said, "It's too late")
(I said, "It's too late")

[Chorus]
And now I can't stop thinking that I can't stop thinking
That I almost gave you everything
And now the whole thing's finished and I can't stop wishing
That I never gave you anything
[Verse 2]
You wrote a hundred letters just for me
And I find them in my closet in the pockets of my jeans
Now I'm constantly reminded of the time I was nineteen
Every single one's forgotten in a laundromat machine

[Refrain]
'Cause I don't let him touch me anymore
I said, "I'm not something to butter up and taste when you get bored
'Cause I have spent too many nights on dirty bathroom floors
To find some peace and quiet right behind a wooden door"

[Pre-Chorus]
He said, "Please don't go away"
He said, "Please don't go away"
(I said, "It's too late")
(I said, "It's too late")
He said, "Please don't go away"
He said, "Please don't go away"
(I said, "It's too late")
(I said, "It's too late")

[Chorus]
And now I can't stop thinking that I can't stop thinking
That I almost gave you everything
And now the whole thing's finished and I can't stop wishing
That I never gave you anything
And now I can't stop thinking that I can't stop thinking
That I almost gave you everything (I said, "It's too late")
And now the whole thing's finished and I can't stop wishing
That I never gave you anything
[Outro]
He said, "Please don't go away"
He said, "Please don't go away"
(I said, "It's too late")
(I said, "It's too late")
He said, "Please don't go away"
He said, "Please don't go away"
(I said, "It's too late")
I said, "It's too late"

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
