They say that all your lights were burning

they found your doors and windows locked

they found a note on the kitchen table

and they found a bullet in your heart

Well you said that you had reached the breaking point

and you took your phone off the hook

then your wife and family were summoned

but they were afraid and she was ashamed to look



Dear Michael -- is it really over?

Dear Michael -- is that all you're worth?

Dear Michael -- is that what you wanted?

Dear Michael -- the last is alway first



I guess there's a skeleton in every closet

there's hardly room to hang your coat

and there's always some dirt under the carpet

we sweep it there and hope that it don't show

And I see a lot of nervous smiles on a lot of nervous faces

and I've heard some awful lies have been told

and sometimes I wonder should I tell them all

'cause they don't know the things that I know



Dear Michael -- is it really over?

Dear Michael -- is that all you're worth?

Dear Michael -- is that what you wanted?

Dear Michael -- the last is alway first



Dear Michael is it really over?
