lyrics

She stole a glowing infant from nativity
And with her peppermint tongue she licked through cavity
She told me snow angels were simply ghosts with wings
Her eyes dulled with a hopelessness when lovers spoke of the spring
Her eyes lit like the North Star
Lips suck a candy cane until the tip is too sharp
Aurora borealis has guided her this far
Her scent’s under my tree and in the back of my car
Miss December, we can’t dream with mistletoe ‘round bed posts
To wish on a constellation that solidifies ghosts
We make out in a burning Christmas tree farm
While spray-painted Virgin Marys protect her from harm
Drawn to the Christmas lights we creep through flurry and frost
Entwined in tinsel fade pale white until we are lost
Miss December, we can’t dream with mistletoe ‘round bed posts
To wish on a constellation that solidifies ghosts
Miss December, we can’t breathe with mistletoe ‘round our throats
We wish on dead constellations to solidify ghosts
Plastic Mary winks right at me
