snow globe on an alien's desk

It's that time of year

Another rotation

I just love it here

In our simulation

Frozen in time

Before it melts away

We only get like 80 Christmas days

My nose on the glass

White powder falling

Gifts getting wrapped

Grandparents calling

It's coming down hard

Blocking the stars

I fall asleep wondering where we are

One day I was born and one day I'm gonna die

Oh, what a miracle it is to be alive

Lucky to live here just floating on a speck

In a snow globe on an alien's desk

Days getting colder

Parents grow older

New crease on their face

Memories mark their place

I sit by the fire

Wondering where I will

Be at their age

(Where I'm gonna be, where I'm gonna be)

(Where I'm gonna be, where I'm gonna be)

Winter wind's roaring

Pesto is snoring

The temperature drops

Think what more could I want

Than to stay right here

For another year

I'm just grateful to say

One day I was born and one day I'm gonna die

Oh, what a miracle it is to be alive

Lucky to live here just floating on a speck

In a snow globe on an alien's desk
