Lyrics

You were depressed, you were really messed up
You know I understand
But why did you not talk to me
Why didn't you help me prepare for the nightmare?
You took a vacation into oblivion
You were so low
And I felt like I didn't know you
Christmas vacation, you took a vacation from me
Oh-oh-oh, from me
Oh-oh-oh
Once it ended I mended myself
But is keeps falling back down off the shelves in my head
A twinge of pain now a shudder of disgust
As I shield my eyes from my own memory
I knew about your plans
I really did understand
But you didn't let me know
I wasn't invited to go
Christmas vacation, you took a vacation from me
Oh-oh-oh, from me
Oh-oh-oh
I watched in desperation as you stumbled before my eyes
She needs beer, she doesn't need me, I finally realized
My anger and pain in all your fun, you couldn't recognize
I stopped caring long before you started to cry
I knew about your plans
I really did understand
But you didn't let me know
I wasn't invited to go
Christmas vacation, you took a vacation from me
Oh-oh-oh, from me
Oh-oh-oh
From me, oh-oh-oh
From me, oh-oh-oh
