I don't want the promise, I want the guarantee
Of loose leaves, from trees
Outside is the drama that takes place outside
From you, and me too
Pa**words save you, from me, and just
Secure our lives with secret Santas
Hopes dissolve under florescent lights, and they steal us away
From our rightful goodnights
Yeah, I want to see you, yeah, I want to believe
That you're downtown, that you're around
I know you're sincere because I've got it on my machine
I turn it up loud, like you're here now
Pa**words save you, from me, and just
Secure our lives with secret Santas
As hopes dissolve under florescent lights
Yeah, I know that there are hopes
I can see them at night
