My first holiday anything!

lyrics

Got everything we've wanted
Now there’s too much stuff
race around in darkness
unsure of when it's enough
night's longer now
as the earth tilts away
from the pagan star
the ritual came from
credit card is heavy
crashing a new year
tail lights in this traffic are festive
and everyone selling their brand will say
debt from giving doesn't count
it's Christmas, of course
I am just stressed out

pull in late to the driveway
sudden seizure from your sister's decorations
glad they finally accept me
I brought their favorite provisions
gin for your mother and weed for you dad
neither need to know it's regifted
I'm braced for your brother,
his whereabouts
On January 6 are suspicious
you can choose your friends but
family are with you till your in the ground
It's Christmas, of course, I am so stressed out

All of California is on fire
a strand of lights
are out on our tree
blink and it will be
summer & we will find ourselves
swimming at the beach
in all this ash and plastic

We won the war on drugs
and lost the war on Christmas
I blame all the departed
who'll never have to see it
piles Pretty paper all torn apart
before it all goes to the landfill
while my trick to believe
it's worth believing
is sitting at the kids table
and I'm careful when I'm drowning
I don't pull my loved ones down
It's xmas of course I am just stressed out.
