Lyrics: 
So I wrote it all in a letter 
But I don't know if it came 
The nurse she likes my writing 
So she keeps it all just like me 
So that it won't go away 
 
I won't be denied this time 
'Fore I go out of my mind over matters 
Got my foot on the ladder 
And I'm climbing up to the moon 
 
Got a sky that looks like heaven 
Got an earth that looks like shit 
And it's getting hard to tell where 
what I am ends 
And what they're making me begins 
 
And I won't be denied this time 
'Fore I go out of my mind over matters 
Got my foot on the ladder 
And I'm climbing up to the moon 
 
Saturday in the yard 
They'll bring you by 
We'll lay down on the grass 
And watch as the sky closes in 
 
I won't be denied this time 
'Fore I go out of my mind over matters 
Got my foot on the ladder 
And I'm climbing up to the moon
