Winter break always seems so cold.
|
I took my brother's keys and I drove.
|
Turned the headlights on because it's already dark at 6 PM.
|
I'll navigate familiar roads to the Christmas songs on the radio.
|
I'll turn it off for "Let it Snow." I won't be snowed in.
|
We're visiting some friends I haven't seen since August
|
to catch up on all the things we missed while we were in college.
|
We'll find a house party when the bars close
|
and I'll drive all my drunken friends home.
|
Proving once again that no one we've ever met
|
has really changed that much since high school.
|
|
Let's turn on the TV and wait for Christmas specials.
|
We'll make some frozen pizza and watch your stolen cable.
|
We'll thank whoever's in charge here that this year
|
didn't treat me so bad.
|
|
The day the ground starts to get wet,
|
everyone that I've ever met has an away message that says,
|
"Faintest snow keep falling." New diners are packed out
|
with old friends. We're overwhelmed but unimpressed.
|
I miss the days when I knew every single waitress.
|
We'll find a house party when the bars close.
|
We'll never spend the holidays alone.
|
Proving once again that there's a reason my friends
|
still tend to call this place home.
