Forget December

On Christmas mourning Outside it was pouring All was hopeless in this home No one speaking 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 be it Can we let each other be? [Chorus] Forget December It won't be better Than I remember it before And this month only Would be so lonely And not so homely anymore New Year's Eve came But nothing had changed All the problems just got worse We sat in silence The routine science Could hear the sickness we rehearse And if I'm talking My words are mocking For deaf ears they have fallen on These words are tainted With years of jaded In a sense that's all but gone. [Chorus:Repeat x2] A silent night Won't feel quite right It's not so silent anymore Anymore Anymore Anymore Oh Christmas morning Outside it was pouring All was hopeless in this home
