Lyrics

Present day and age:
There's a sign that says "you're finally here" and "welcome home"
And after all this time, you would think that I could find a way to blend
But even when I try, I can barely stand to recreate the melody of when I shut my door
You went overboard with your display
I've got someone to smile for me
He says I wasn't always this way, but now I've got someone to lie for me
Oh well. we always hide behind the things that move us up and down
They bring us to our knees and we're blank until we find an easy end
Asleep in empty sheets, there's a knock saluting desperations' on the phone
But wake me when the sunlight shines through the ornamental glass at dawn
I've got someone to smile for me
She says I wasn't always this way, but now I've got someone to lie for me
Oh well, she's right
But now for the time, she calms me down
I know that all of this is all for nothing
We shout words through a crowd of red and green
Under the limbs of every fire hazard, we start young and it never stays the same
I know that someone has a lot to say now, but we'll hide behind a mass of preparation gone wrong
Someday, after all the cold embraces
We'll toast wine and share a memory to paint the picture
I know that honesty's a problem in this line of work, but I will always hold my breath when I see snow
