the wind is so cold / and you're not here to warm me up
first christmas alone / but it won't be the last
didn't bother to decorate / you're the one who cared about all that
no gifts under the tree / i didn't bother to wrap
went out to get the mail / not a christmas card in sight
just coupons and credit cards / cable bills and magazines
i wanna tear down the lights and the whole tree /
hope you threw away anything that reminds you of me /
thank god i've been so awful this year /
i need some coal cause the fire's dying down
got a call from my mother / said she wished i was home
baked me some cookies / and my presents on it's way
she asked me about us / said we were doing just fine
couldn't stand to tell her / i fucked up another time
merry christmas / i'm sorry for what i did
and i know i say it a lot / but i promise it won't happen again
i don't except your forgiveness / i just wanted you to know
that i finally understand that / i'm just dirt and your are snow
