25-31

Hide under your bed with Christmas decorations

It's dark in my head and painted like the pavement

And everyone's aging whether I want them to or not

Yellow lines on the road, a new line on your face

Then I convince myself the past seems like a safe place to stay in

And everyone's changing, I'm stuck on the median

Just one more year

I'll change my meds

And we can start here

It feels like I've wasted time under the crest

While you watched from the pier

When I came up

I think I'd blacked out

Well Christmas is here

And I figured maybe I'd show up for once and see how it fits

And we could talk all about it

The 26th is your birthday, you're complaining again

How it's upstaged by Christmas. They're sick of tying ribbons

You're wrapping it up, I'm dragging it out

Instead of reeling the line in

Just one more year

I'll change my meds

And we can start here

It feels like I've wasted time under the crest

While you watched from the pier

When I came up

I think I'd blacked out

Well Christmas is here

And I figured maybe I'd show up for once and see how it fits

And we could talk all about it

There you were

TV up loud

Watch the ball drop

Count the years down

And if I would've known that was the last time we'd speak

I think I would’ve called you more, visited daily

And never missed holidays like I was too busy

I promise we were close that's not what it was

I guess nothing makes life real like death does

Just one more year

I'll change my meds

And we can start here

It feels like I've wasted time under the crest

While you watched from the pier

When I came up

I think I'd blacked out

Well Christmas is here

And I figured maybe I'd show up for once and see how it fits

And we could talk all about it
