December
Why can't you remember?
This won't last forever
As long as I tell myself
To never say never
December won't last forever
Disposable pictures of you
From the summer
Still hang all over my room
As if we were together
I've perfected tired eyes
If only we could both go back in time
I would've changed my mine
And walked you home that night
So why
Do I do this to myself almost every time?
I'll just stay inside
And contemplate my life
Strictly out of spite
December
Why can't you remember?
This won't last forever
As long as I tell myself
To never say never
December won't last forever
Disposable pictures of you
From the summer
Still hang all over my room
As if we
Were ever together at all
