LYRICS:
-------
I always tell myself to be patient,
But my left hand shakes
Against your new couch.
Control of the situation
Fell through my fingers,
I heard her say
You can't keep living as if your dying
Well I'm dying.
And now what an awkward way
To spend the holiday
In such a deviant
Way to behave,
It's amazing how quiet this house is
When the world outside
Is celebrating their New Years
And their new fears.
Your diction is okay,
'Cause its medically approved,
And he night is expired.
Lay me down
To sleep, but one more thing
Can you say "diction".
Well I can admit my guilt.
Emergency, oh, emergency.
Let's whisper, goodnight.
And now what an awkward way
To spend the holiday
In such a deviant
Way to behave,
It's amazing how quiet this house is
When the world outside
Is celebrating their New Years
And their new fears.
