Letter
The lyrics seem to deal with a very tortuous love affair (which can also metaphorically refer to a type of drug), in which “she and he” were very hurt. But “he” says that she was the one that hurt him the most and turned the relationship into something painful. “He” is dedicated to reproach all the damage that was done, proving that he still has deep grudges.
Music
The music style is post-punk stark and raw , similar to that played bands like Joy Division . It has two parts. In the first, the song looks like a ballad, with “tortuous” guitar sounds and a slow rhythm. In the second, the song accelerates its rhythm, the battery sounds strong, the guitar also accelerates and the bass seems to take the function of a rhythm guitar.
