December

Stumbled 'round the block a thousand times
You missed every call that I had tried
So now I'm giving up

A heartbreak in mid-December
You don't give a fuck, you never remember me
While you're pulling on his jeans
Getting lost in the big city

I was looking out our window
Watching all the cars go
Wondering if I'll see Chicago
Or a sunset on the West Coast
Or will I die in the cold
Feeling blue and alone?
I wonder if you'll ever hear this song on your stereo

I hope you get your ballroom floor
Your perfect house with rose-red doors
I'm the last thing you remember
It's been a long, lonely December
I wish I'd known that less is more
But I was passed out on the floor
That's the last thing I remember
It's been a long, lonely December

Cast me a sign to show yourself in a better light
I came out breathing, barely breathing
And you came out alright
But I'm sure you'll take his hand
I hope he's better than I ever could've been
My mistakes were not intentions
This is a list of my confessions I couldn't say

It is never permanent but tonight it's killing me

I hope you get your ballroom floor
Your perfect house with rose-red doors
I'm the last thing you remember
It's been a long, lonely December
I wish I'd known that less is more
But I was passed out on the floor
That's the last thing I remember
It's been a long, lonely December

I miss your face
You're in my head
There's so many things that I should've said
A year of suffering, a lesson learned

I miss your face
You're in my head
There's so many things that I should've said
A year of suffering, a lesson learned

I hope you get your ballroom floor
Your perfect house with rose-red doors
I'm the last thing you remember
It's been a long, lonely December
I wish I'd known that less is more
But I was passed out on the floor
That's the last thing I remember
It's been a long, lonely December
