Gray Christmas Lyrics

Last Christmas all I wanted was to not be useless

Is that too much to ask for?

This year I'm afraid I'm not doing much better

I'm feeling like the ugliest sweater

And someone lost the receipt

Can someone wrap me up

Tie a ribbon on

Enclose me with the comforting feeling of worth

This is my Christmas present, past, and future

Looking all around I see

A hundred thousand people doing better than me

I want to fall asleep to the fire in the hearth

(Burning everything down around me)

Maybe then I'll finally get some peace

(What good is a white Christmas when everything is dark?)

Yeah, Santa skipped my house this year

There's no chimney, no stockings

And the clouds are stopping the midnight clear

(I'm just a lump of coal)

I had to mortgage my gingerbread house

And I sold my sleigh just to put food in my mouth

(Here on the isle of misfit boys)
