written and recorded in an anxious flurry between December 18-19, 2022
lyrics
Presents on the floor
Tear away the bow
I don't want to know
Am I good enough?
All the things I gave
Aren't what I'd say
How can I convey
Am I good enough?
Last chance to run for the hills
Turn myself into wind
Joy on every face
Grateful in embrace
I cannot maintain
This grace
Wrapping paper, tinsel
Mark the season's turn
Start the timer, count it down
Am I good enough?
Last chance to run for the hills
Turn myself into wind
On a silent night
When the stars shine
In the black sky
Time flows slower
On the advent of
The season of gilded love
Feel the absence from
My cold shoulder
Hang a wreath to hold
Everlasting hope
That what we can't control
Will be good enough
I've no gold nor silver
I bring only me
Can I fill your stocking
With my anxiety?
Last chance to run for the hills
Turn myself into wind
On a silent night
When the stars shine
In the black sky
Time flows slower
On the advent of
The season of gilded love
Feel the absence from
My cold shoulder
Christmastime again
Light the dread within
Turn the engine
Drive me good enough
And I'll give in
Drive me good enough
And I'll give in
