lyrics

Bring your soldiers in, they don’t need to fight anymore
Tv tells no tales, just the ones of fiction written long before
To all my friends I’ve lost, through animosity from an emotional cost, I have paid
We’re not cold anymore, your regrets and your worries will be checked at the door

Seems to go so fast
Like yesterday were futures but in a second now past
Did we get what we want? Did we change anything? Or once again home defeated no tidings to bring

Dress your tree, and hang your decorations on the wall, the latter always falls and no one cares at all
Ain’t it strange? We always end up back where we belong? It never felt wrong, so I wish to you a merry Xmas in another year.

Dead end jobs and minimum wage, the bills from gifts I never want to pay
Never seems to change

And we always seem to hope for a happy new year, but it never comes
And I’m tired of trying
I’m happy I’m warm, there’s no fears of the storms outside

Make my Xmas the same
And I won’t fear of any new year to come

I swear you’ll find me at Xmas time
