A Soundtrack for Crazy

Any other year, I’d typically have Christmas music streaming out of my nose and ears.

This year is a bit different. This year, I’ve got crazy* all around me. (*see also: insanity, mayhem)

I found myself taking comfort from this song as a mother’s lullaby might console a newborn baby (because God knows I’ve been wanting to weep like one).

And then I decided. This is all I want for Christmas.

When you try your best, but you don’t succeed
When you get what you want, but not what you need
When you feel so tired, but you can’t sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can’t replace
When you love someone, but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you’re too in love to let it go
But if you never try you’ll never know
Just what you’re worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down on your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down on your face
And I…

Tears stream down on your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down on your face
And I…

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you
