Christmas is Broken (Never is Long) listen
_________________________________

Christmas is broken this year
like your promise and my feet
and this carpet of snow straight ahead
would be oceans to your heat
and I'm longing for your heat

Pushing off from the feeling I lost
the depression of fresh tracks
covered up seven paces behind
numb and frozen from this lack
and I'm never coming back

Why'd you swear your flame was true
when the warmth would never last?
after all, the reddest blood still fades to blue
your never is long
this Christmas, I'm starting on my own

We were born in a much greener time
we were naked in the sun
promises spread like flowers in a field
many millions, all for one
now the daylight vows it's done

Why'd you swear your flame was true
when the warmth would never last?
after all, the reddest of blood still fades to blue
your never is long
this Christmas, I'm starting on my own

Why'd your flame burn out on me?
just a toy beneath your tree
but everything's fine here with me
everything's fine

As the world needs to slumber again
so I nestle in my bed
if this smoldering hearth disappears
I'll imagine it instead

There's a gift I can just barely see
given from your name to my own
and I'm sure for the first time tonight
that I'm going to return
I can feel that fire burn
as the reddest blood becomes blue

Why'd you swear your flame was true
when the warmth would never last?
in the end, I'm falling asleep with thoughts of you
your never is long
this Christmas, I...

Are you waiting up for me?
I just wanna feel your hands all over me
are you in the light I see?
your never is long
this Christmas...

I am home.
