December Nights Lyrics

Does your heart feel the pressure

To raise a drink and smile

To picture sun in winter days

And drag your mind a mile

Where happiness is plastic love

Fashioned from flesh and blood

In red and green, here comes the flood

When I relive my Christmas

I'm always feeling torn

On one hand I've felt cozy

On one hand I've felt warm

But 'neath the heat is sorrow

A floating mass of ice

When all my fears were heightened

In deep December nights

Does your heart feel the tension

In all this cold pretend

Inside tradition wrapped in lights

That drives you round the bend

Does stress become your fireplace

And make you stop and sigh

As you turn your house into a wood

And place a star up high

So high

When I relive my Christmas

I'm always feeling torn

On one hand I've felt cozy

On one hand I've felt warm

But 'neath the heat is sorrow

A floating mass of ice

When all my fears were heightened

In deep December nights

Oh Christmas, why have you left me so alone?

Oh Christmas, why have you left me so alone?

A build-up so tremendous

To something lost and low

You'll find me somewhere Christmas day

Preserved within the snow

I've never felt so fragile

Inside these days of cold

This strain of cheer this time of year

I need a brand new mould

When I relive my Christmas

I'm always feeling torn

On one hand I've felt cozy

On one hand I've felt warm

But 'neath the heat is sorrow

A floating mass of ice

When all my fears were heightened

In deep December nights
