Christmas Is Over (For Good)

from Wreath by The Carmelittles

/

lyrics

Noël,
you have left me alone with your fir tree
your needles shiver
in the dark of my old neighborhood

in the streetlights
through my tear-blurry eyes
I see a sunrise
where needles fall down
to melt the Christmas snow
that buried me in grief
for the lamb

I have to, but don't want to drag you to the alley
I'll keep your tinsel on to shine your broken branches
When the day comes, they will take you home in the trash bag
and I will walk to the house where I grew up
and look through the window
and see you in the wreath on the repainted wall

I've fallen
and what I fall through is you
in my neighborhood
where Christmas is over for good
