Christmas Tree

I chopped down a Christmas tree
I took the life it's given me
My smile creeps up like ivy
I strung it up with pretty lights
They come and go
But hypnotize me every single time

This holiday energy
Is making me believe
There's more to love than loss
It melts the ice in my eyes
It always makes me cry
Every year this time

Every wish I've thought of you
And if I dared I'd make them true
But I'm terrified to choose you
What you get you get to lose
And I can't bare any more bad news
It hurts to breathe sometimes

I know it's better to lose
Then never have what you've
Wanted out of love
Still shivers from the snow
Remind me of my ghosts
And I'm so sick of loss

It seems to me
Nothing here ever lasts too long
This Christmas Tree
Is shining
But it's already gone
