Here's to another December
Live by the light of the embers
To stay warm we're throwing our letters into the fire
Sitting in an empty smoke filled bedroom
I wonder why we'd walk on broken glass
And stare down at our reflections
Ignoring all the cracks
Danny's in the hospital again
And we can't afford to keep the lights from going out
There are vipers in the holes that we would hide in
There is venom in the hallways of the house
Its fine
The world turns white
I swear to you that its fine
Sometimes we even sleep at night
Living life by pulling down all of the shades
Don't let them figure out that we're afraid
Of the next timebomb and the next tragedy
Even though we know its coming
Always staring at footsteps and lost in my head
Are we a step now from heaven or a step from the ledge?
I don't know if I could take a winter like it again
Even though we know its coming
No one will blink when we leave this place
They'll put our things up in the attic just to free up living space
Into dusty cardboard boxes we will disappear
No one will talk about what happened here
No one will blink when we leave this place
They'll put our things up in the attic just to free up living space
Into boxes we disappear
No one will talk about what happened here.
