If I Die on Christmas

If I die on Christmas,
pull me out from the snow
String me up with lights
and throw me in a casket
Tell the others that I won't be coming back
Help them hold back tears so they don't freeze in the cold
If I die on Christmas,
bake a batch of cookies
Sing some Christmas carols
and run from door to door
So, if I die on Christmas,
please move onto New Year's
Throw yourself a party
and live like you might die
Ride a bike across the
country 'til you grow tired
Meet some other people
and sit beside a fire
'Cos no one knows for certain, at least, not you or I
So let's kiss in the snow and gain warmth from this light
because I think this feeling is electric

Out on Gibbs St. again
snow has fallen, it graces the road
and it’s early enough that I am all I know
A few months ago I gave away your clothes
I thought you needed them but I should have known
that I can’t fix everything by holding onto time
It’s not mine
but that’s fine
That’s fine
Last year I couldn’t listen to this album
but now every note feels new
and it seems like I’m in the recording session
gaining my feelings back with each verse,
breaking my heart in reverse
I can hear Mariah singing “all I want for Christmas is you”
and I’m thinking about how love never dies
it just waits to renew
