about

Some of us have a different definition of "Holiday Spirit." Here's to those of us who find this time of year hard.

lyrics

I’m down for the holidays again
Descending in a spiral, instead of where I should have been
They’re dancing as the world goes round, I hold on while it spins.
I’m down for the holidays again.

I sit here in the darkness of the night
While outside all the world is painted cheerful Christmas white
With baking smells and silver bells and tiny flashing lights
And all I want to do is close my eyes…

I’m down for the holidays again
Descending in a spiral, instead of where I should have been
They’re dancing as the world goes round, I hold on while it spins.
I’m down for the holidays again.

I’m missing all of those I’ve left behind,
Those I didn’t love enough, or failed time after time.
I should be celebrating in a Christmas state of mind,
But missteps and defeats are all I find.

I’m down for the holidays again
Descending in a spiral, instead of where I should have been
They’re dancing as the world goes round, I hold on while it spins.
I’m down for the holidays again.

I should be singing softly with a peaceful yuletide choir,
Or curled up with my loved ones by a quiet Christmas fire,
Or wrapping presents, filling every holiday desire,
Instead I find that all I am is tired…
