"'tis the season, babe." november 19, 2023 (TW ED)
verse 1
'tis the season, babe
it'll be new years too late
don't want to change us but
we're in an aimless rut
chorus
i don't want to spend another christmas
waiting for you to love me right
god, what is it about this month
that puts me in a bad mood twice?
i don't know, but
we're just both stuck
verse 2
deck the halls, babe
watch a movie late
comfortable is what we've been
but i'm struggling now, i can't pretend
chorus
i don't want to spend another christmas
waiting for you to love me right
god, what is it about this month
that puts me in a bad mood twice?
i don't know, but
we're just both stuck
bridge
i take my medication, pour out
the orange bottle on the counter
i've lost some weight, just four ounces
i'll be back to last quarter
i've been dreaming again
about the things i've been through
you just nod until it all ends
i'm a distraction to you
chorus/outro
i don't want to spend another christmas
waiting for you to love me right
god, what is it about this month
that puts me in a bad mood twice?
i promise i've taken my medication
the orange bottle's almost gone
and, yes, i've lost some weight again
i've lost the progress i've worked on
all the nightmares are coming back
i can't escape the demons now
you just nod and say that's that
i'm just a nuisance, i've found.
i don't know, but
we're just both stuck
-late christmas song but whatever
