"Forget December" lyrics - SOMETHING CORPORATE

SOMETHING CORPORATE
"Forget December"

On Christmas morning
Outside was pouring
All was hopeless in this home
But no one's speaking
And 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 beat it
Can we let each other be?

Forget December
It won't be better
Than I remember it before
And this month only
Will be so lonely
But not so Holy anymore

New Years Eve came
But nothing had changed
All the problems just got worse
We sat in silence
No routine science
Could heal the sickness we rehearse

And if I'm talking
My words are mocking
The deaf ears they had fallen on
These words are tainted
With years are jaded
In a sense that's all but gone

Forget December
It won't be better
Than I remember it before
And this month only
Will be so lonely
But not so Holy anymore
Anymore
Anymore
Anymore

Forget December
It won't be better
Than I remember it before
And this month only
Will be so lonely
But not so Holy anymore

Forget December
It won't be better
Than I remember it before
Our silent night
Won't feel quite right
It's not so silent anymore
Anymore
Anymore
Anymore

On Christmas morning
Outside was pouring
All was hopeless in this home
