December Lyrics

Do you remember what you told me last December

And how it all came true, but the tables had turned

Guess I should have known that you were just projecting

I'm an emotional dyslexic, I can't read the signs and I don't know when to turn

If I got one thing that you could call a pastime

It's dreaming of the things a time machine could fix

After a 20-year affair with the undo button

I got no idea what the hell I'm supposed to do next

Well, the rubble's down and the ash is all set

You'll be lying in your poster bed

When the TV's off and the phones have been shelved

Are you proud of how you handled yourself?

One day I'll end the war I've waged on myself

Sign a treaty, faces grim to show we know the cost

But the sticking point in all negotiation

No one gets me like the friend I lost

I ran into your cousin on Great Highway

She said you started dating again

Bet you'd do that thing on dates where you get too nervous to eat

As I become the guy you're not supposed to talk about

Well, the rubble's down and the ash is all set

You'll be lying in your poster bed

When the TV's off and the phones have been shelved

Are you proud of how you handled yourself?

I'm not proud of how I handled myself

Are you proud of how you handled yourself?

I'm not proud of how I handled myself

And I wish that I could see you

I wish that I could see you

I wish that I could see you

I wish that I could see you

I wish that I could see you

I wish that I could see you

Today I am praying for both of us to die in a fire

In my dreams you're the sky and I'm the ocean

Maybe San Francisco I

I will give you all the love I got left

I wish that I could see you

I wish that I could see you

Again
