Forget December

On Christmas morning

Outside was pouring

All was hopeless in this home

But no one's speaking

And no one creeping

To see if she was on the phone

And you were quiet

This routine riot

Is all but practical to me

And if we see it

Why can't we beat it

Can we let each other be?

Forget December

It won't be better

Than I remember it before

And this month only

Will be so lonely

But not so Holy anymore

New Years Eve came

But nothing had changed

All the problems just got worse

We sat in silence

No routine science

Could heal the sickness we rehearse

And if I'm talking

My words are mocking

The deaf ears they had fallen on

These words are tainted

With years are jaded

In a sense that's all but gone

Forget December

It won't be better

Than I remember it before

And this month only

Will be so lonely

But not so Holy anymore

Anymore

Anymore

Anymore

Forget December

It won't be better

Than I remember it before

And this month only

Will be so lonely

But not so Holy anymore

Forget December

It won't be better

Than I remember it before

Our silent night

Won't feel quite right

It's not so silent anymore

Anymore

Anymore

Anymore

On Christmas morning

Outside was pouring

All was hopeless in this home
