Private Message is a song appearing on the Album 5 Demos. It has been worked into a The Relationship demo called Hand to Hold. It was one of the first post-Maladroit Weezer songs to be posted, being released before Maladroit was even in stores. Already, the band was showing a clear departure from the Maladroit sound.

Fans have speculated that the opening lines are taken from the much older Weezer demo "You Won't Get With Me Tonight."

Lyrics

I want you
So badly
Too bad that
You slam me

And when you
Are reading
The words I write
You think that
I'm just some
Dumb, horny guy

I'm trying
To show you
A hint of
My coolness

But I can't
Give up on
The secret deed
This love is
So empty
When you can't cheat

Hold my hand
Tell me that you love me
For who I am

But I can't
Give up on
The secret deed
Cause love is
So empty
When you can cheat

Hold my hand
Tell me that you love me
For who I am

I'm trying
To show you
A hint of
My coolness
