Holiday Don't forget to celebrate the cause Holiday Although I can't remember what it was Holiday Ornament Tradition though I'm not sure what it means Ornament But the perfect place to compliment the tree Ornament White road Big coat Breathing in air And blowing out smoke Blizzard bull Shovel full Bury me I'll achieve that ultimate buzz Celebrate A jolly bearded man named Santa Clause Celebrate A humble man who died upon the cross Celebrate anyway White road Big coat Breathing in air And blowing out smoke Blizzard bull Shovel full Bury me I'll achieve that ultimate buzz Old friend My kin Now ain't that the darnedest thing those weary old eyes have ever seen I wouldn't trade my confusion for a thing

I seen him in his himalayan home shifting with the snow He scurried but I'm sure I'm gaining slack Step behind his track On the search for the fabled frozen man On the search and I'll do the best I can I'll solve the mystery it's true! Every woman or man in the promised land won't forget my face again I seen him on a himalayan night Blended with the white I approached him cautiously too close Turned and ripped my throat So the search for the fabled frozen man Had to end but I did the best I can I'm sure you'll read it in the news That a stranger met a mysterious end You won't see his face again

Falling down on christmas eve. The tree made a mess on the floor. And he's hoping the "invitations that I sent all must be lost in the mail. I'll just party all by myself!" And he says "I don't want anything for Christmas. I just want to be left all alone. And there's no need for any mistletoe this year. " So he takes it down, starts choking on his throat. The punchbowl holds enough for twelve, he says, "I'll drink it myself!" And he does. "I'll play all the games!" And he does. Unwrapping the presents beneath the tree. He rips them to pieces ungracefully. He's writing a letter "Dear Everyone, Thanks for coming to my party. It was a lot of fun." Now the room's spinning around And everything is slowing down. He takes a rest on the floor. and keeps his eyes on the door "I gotta keep my eyes open wide if my guests should arrive. I'll just put a note on the door 'I drank too much, I'm on the floor'." And he dreams of a beautiful party And all his friends are at the door And everybody sings to a beautiful melody. But he's out of key, and starts choking on his throat. Woke up to the telephone. "hello?" He spoke with a friend. "Where have you been?! A deer in the road?". They ran to a phone and called 911. Now several are laid up in the hospital. The few that were okay, they prayed all night. "Please god help my loved ones make it through the night" He holds no expression upon his face. He says "merry christmas". Then he faints.

Gravity really brings me down It's intent to keep me on the ground when I don't want to stay. Tried to speed things up a bit I pulled the trigger but my finger slipped I didn't want to leave. I will tell you while I can don't try and understand anything at all. Please don't misconstrue my words I'm not speaking in terms of anything at all. I saw a film not long ago It made me sad to watch the credits roll. I waited in my seat. I want to be the leading role and live the story just as it was told, remember all my lines They're laughing at me down in hell, angels are over my head weeping. I put on one hell of a show, perceiving when nothing is set in stone. Gravity really helps me out it's intent to keep my body down, I never want to leave From infinity to one the Rapture has begun we're nearing Bethlehem. I know you've heard this all before But I pray to God that you're prepared for what's to come. There are lines on your face now that prove my point to you. And you'll cry, "Oh god no!", but that won't do no good. It's over.
