[00:05.04] |
The branches have traded their leaves for white sleeves |
[00:13.21] |
All warm-blooded creatures make ghosts as they breathe |
[00:21.19] |
Scarves are wrapped tightly like gifts under trees |
[00:29.41] |
Christmas lights tangle in knots annually |
[00:35.73] |
Our families huddle closely |
[00:39.01] |
Betting warmth against the cold |
[00:42.51] |
But our bruises seem to surface |
[00:46.50] |
Like mud beneath the snow |
[00:50.33] |
So we sing carols softly, as sweet as we know |
[00:58.11] |
A prayer that our burdens will lift as we go |
[01:04.85] |
Like young love still waiting under mistletoe |
[01:12.13] |
We'll welcome december with tireless hope |
[01:17.81] |
Let our bells keep on ringing |
[01:21.10] |
Making angels in the snow |
[01:24.50] |
May the melody disarm us |
[01:27.75] |
When the cracks begin to show |
[01:31.15] |
Like the petals in our pockets |
[01:34.09] |
May we remember who we are |
[01:37.48] |
Unconditionally cared for |
[01:40.81] |
By those who share our broken hearts |
[01:48.19] |
The table is set and our glasses are full |
[01:54.76] |
Though pieces go missing, may we still feel whole |
[02:01.39] |
We'll build new traditions in place of the old |
[02:08.15] |
'cause life without revision will silence our souls |
[02:15.08] |
So let the bells keep on ringing |
[02:18.22] |
Making angels in the snow |
[02:21.41] |
May the melody surround us |
[02:24.60] |
When the cracks begin to show |
[02:27.94] |
Like the petals in our pockets |
[02:31.03] |
May we remember who we are |
[02:34.31] |
Unconditionally cared for |
[02:37.69] |
By those who share our broken hearts |
[02:45.27] |
As gentle as feathers, the snow piles high |
[02:52.25] |
Our world gets rewritten and retraced every time |
[02:58.91] |
Like fresh plates and clean slates, our future is white |
[03:06.09] |
New year's resolutions will reset tonight |
