thenewgreen, zebra2, kantos, steve.
Wrote this song yesterday, recorded and mixed it today. That's one way to procrastinate packing, I guess.
Interestingly, not my first holiday song.
This is the first song I've recorded in a long time, maybe 4 or 5 months. I've been writing new stuff constantly, just been having a hard time setting things down. It's about the first holiday without someone you love. Give some hugs this year.
Lyrics:
Late to mass
We had to stand in the back
Angels we misheard - oh, I -
I just mouthed the words
It's been a while.
I don't take his body now
I wait by the aisle
Till my family comes around.
Broken glass
I was a drunken mess
But you just laughed and swept the ground
You said that empty bottles sound like silver bells
(Can we trade our sweaters?)
It's not my size.
Hang up the stockings
(Now there's only five).
