The branches have traded their leaves for white sleeves
All warm blooded creatures make ghosts as they breathe
Scarves are wrapped tightly like gifts under trees
Christmas lights tangle in knots annually
All families huddle closely, betting warmth against the cold
All the bruises seem to surface, like mud beneath the snow
So we sing carols softly, as sweet as we know
A prayer that our burdens will lift as we go
Like young love still waiting under mistletoe
We'll welcome December with tireless hope
Let our bells keep on ringing, making angels in the snow
And may the melody disarm us, when the cracks begin to show
Like the petals in our pockets, may we remember who we are
Unconditionally cared for by those who share our broken hearts
The table is set and all glasses are full
Though pieces go missing, may we still feel whole
We'll build new traditions in place of the old
'Cause life without revision will silence our souls
Let the bells keep on ringing, making angels in the snow
And may the melody surround us, when the cracks begin to show
Like the petals in our pockets, may we remember who we are
Unconditionally cared for by those who share our broken hearts
As gentle as feathers, the snow piles high
Our world gets rewritten and retraced every time
Like fresh plates and clean slates, our future is white
New Years resolutions will reset tonight
