The Bittersweet Season
Another Christmas comes and goes
A lonely season I now dread
The joy I used to feel is now gone
Boxed up with all the colorful lights
Heavy is my head
Heavy is my heart
How much longer till this passes
How much longer till the new year
How much longer till I'm cried out
Will this sorrow go away
Watching it snow by candlelight
The whiskey dulls my old memories
Keepsakes and trinkets line the hearth
Standing in judgment like it's my fault
Heavy is my head
Heavy is my heart
How much longer till this passes
How much longer till the new year
How much longer till I'm cried out
Will this sorrow go
It's her favorite time of year
But there's no balm for what I feel
So I withdraw
It's so festive everywhere
But all I feel is winter air
Chill my bones
I can no longer take part
Which would break my mother's heart
She'd blame herself
The holidays are cold and dark
Since she died
Oh, since she died
How much longer till this passes
How much longer till the new year
How much longer till I'm cried out
Will this sorrow go away
A lonely season I now dread
The joy I used to feel is now gone
Boxed up with all the colorful lights
Heavy is my head
Heavy is my heart
How much longer till this passes
How much longer till the new year
How much longer till I'm cried out
Will this sorrow go away
Watching it snow by candlelight
The whiskey dulls my old memories
Keepsakes and trinkets line the hearth
Standing in judgment like it's my fault
Heavy is my head
Heavy is my heart
How much longer till this passes
How much longer till the new year
How much longer till I'm cried out
Will this sorrow go
It's her favorite time of year
But there's no balm for what I feel
So I withdraw
It's so festive everywhere
But all I feel is winter air
Chill my bones
I can no longer take part
Which would break my mother's heart
She'd blame herself
The holidays are cold and dark
Since she died
Oh, since she died
How much longer till this passes
How much longer till the new year
How much longer till I'm cried out
Will this sorrow go away
