Frightened Rabbit - It's christmas so we'll stop (choir version) lyrics

It's Christmas so we'll stop It's on with the lights to warm the dark It can cloak elsewhere As the rot stops for today Let the rot stop just for one day Only good red eyes, red suits, and faces will radiate And the cold will hide its face Now the cold has turned away We can be best friends with the people we hate 'Cause we've all got blood And it's warmer than you'd think Yeah it is warm and it is thick We all breathe out clouds And are built to give at least once each year And that's better than never I guess And life might never get better than this It's the perfect excuse for our natures to change And wear shiny clothes Oh it's Christmas so press pause on the remote Oh it's Christmas so we'll stop 'Cause the wine on our breath puts the love in our tongues So forget the names I called you on Christmas Eve In fact forget the entire year Don't reflect just pretend and you won't feel scared You won't feel a thing 'Cause it's all been tucked away And once you're tucked in bed You'll hold on to the day for the last few seconds Your cradled face is protected from the wind And I'll protect you I promise I will And the rest of our lives will be just like Christmas With fewer toys You're a good girl and I'm a good boy Or so I thought Oh it's Christmas so we stopped Were it not for the tick of the clock And the spin of the Earth in space We could always be this way And as we sleep at the fall of the day In the room next door the tree lights brighten the rodent's eye Catches a glimpse of the dust beginning to rise The next day life went back to its bad self The next day life went back to its bad self The next day life went back to its bad self The next day life went back to its bad self
