It's Not Like The Christmas Films

It's December first and everyone I know is dying

The lady on the TV told me so

Sit tight, hang the fairy lights

Try to warm the kid inside

Cos she's cold and she's tired

And she wants to go home

It's not like the Christmas films

I never believed them

Look back to those scenes

But they never happened

Called the doctor but it's closed until the new year

God I wish you were here

Snow is falling and I don't give a fuck about it

I'm too old to play outside

Cos all I want for Christmas this year

Is to feel something other than this

It's not like the Christmas films

I never believed them

Look back to those scenes

But they never happened

Called the doctor but it's closed until the new year

God I wish you were here

It's not like the Christmas films

I never believed them

Look back to those scenes

But they never happened

False hope in snow globes

That nobody lives in

I can't shake it

This familiar feeling

So I called the doctor but it's closed until the new year

God I wish you were here

Wish you were here

Wish you were here
