  • Christmas will break your heart
    If your world is feeling small
    And there's no one on the phone
    You feel close enough to call
    Christmas will crush your soul
    Like that laid back rock 'n' roll
    But your body's getting old
    And it's much too tired to be so bold
    Christmas can wreck your head
    Like some listless awkward sex
    So you refuse to leave your bed
    And get depressed when no one checks
    Yeah, Christmas will break your heart
    Like the armies of the unrelenting dark
    Once the peace talks fall apart

    But still I'm coming home to you

    Christmas will shove you down
    So just lay back in the snow
    But that quiet wind won't wake
    What inside you has grown cold
    And Christmas will drown your love
    Like a storm down from above
    On your fading memories of a normal life

    Oh, while I thought to make you mine
    Believing in the line
    That your heart would melt with time
    And though you're out with them again
    Your thick and fickle friends
    They might replace the love that ends

    But still I'm coming home to you
    To you
    To you
    To you
    Yes you
    To you
    To you
    To you

    But what if you're done?
    What if you don't want it anymore?
    So what if they're gone?
    So what if they don't love you anymore?

    I'm coming home
    Can you see me?
    Can you still see me?
    Hey mama, take my hand Writer/s: Alexander Doyle, James Murphy, Morgan Francisco Wiley, Nancy Whang, Patrick Mahoney, Tyler Pope
