December

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Change your clothes in the shadows Let nothing pass through lonely doorways Your sand castle crumbles, but you've never been better Is it real if we don't swim in the shame? [Pre-Chorus] Like a swing set in the sea We are anything but ordinary [Chorus] You'll be dead in December [Verse 2] You're always on guard in a beach house of cards Keep watch through fragments of glass I know about your secrets in the ceiling, while you're screaming every night About the shape of your hands [Pre-Chorus] Like a swing set in the sea We are anything but ordinary [Chorus] You'll be dead in December There can't be two of us forever Embrace the endless changes, flames to corners of our pages There can't be two of us forever [Bridge] A slow weave through abandoned streets Technicolor tapestry, as half of me is dying The only difference between a garden and a graveyard is what you bury in it You're not who you think you are So let go of old ghosts, let your hair grow [Chorus] You'll be dead in December There can't be two of us forever Embrace the endless changes, flames to corners of our pages There can't be two of us forever Dead in December There can't be two of us forever Forever [Outro] Like a swing set in the sea We are everything but ordinary
