in the latter half of december   pressure builds from all reflection on the prior year   on this prior year , yes it was such a great year      sidewalks fill till congestion starts to spill   out onto the steam rising off of lexington      a broken promise is on display for a disconnected family   to reestablish a blood relation   through wine and drunken conversations   without this would there be      oh anything at all      my brothers age exceeds mine by several years   but when he's here the years disinegrate   watch them disappear   just watch them rolling all the fear   cause our luck, mistakes and misfortunes   without them would there be   a place for these children to lead   a way out of war torn country   will they see      anything at all   oh anything at all   parents they will brace this fall   soon enough receive the call   above the crying, everythings gone wrong      you see everythings gone wrong   you see everythings gone wrong   just call your brother, give him love   the broken pieces we will sew      broken promise on display,    disconnected family   if not this would there be,    would there be reason to celebrate   would there be reason, reason at all      and on this holiday i beg and pray   for you to show me a conversation   holding hands underneath all the flashing decorations   put everything aside for now.   its just you i love tonight   if not for eachother, then for my parents sake      on this holiday i beg and pray   for you to show me a conversation   holding hands underneath all the flashing decorations   and put everything aside for now.   its just you i love tonight   if not for eachother,    then for my parents sake
