Lyrics

Holiday Hours

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'm waking up, I'm getting out into the daily motion

I'm placing bets, I'm rising up to meet your day

It's presentation of the perfect family expectation

Tinseled evergreens are losing their display

Stop and starters, winter partners, under doormat key

Warrior weekends, shallow deep ends

I don't ever wanna hear, they won't give what you need

I don't ever wanna hear

I don't ever wanna hear, they won't let you be

I don't ever wanna hear

They're just the product of a childhood better left forgetting

You're so the picture of an image I have seen

There's a synopsis in the boxes housed on storefront shelving

A case of delving as the week's unraveling

Basement bargains, in-law jargons, buy one, get one free

Sibling rivals, heirloom bibles, half-lit family tree

I don't ever wanna hear, they won't give what you need

I don't ever wanna hear

I don't ever wanna hear, they won't let you be

I don't ever wanna see

Walk to the front of the line on the block

In the back of your mind to the place you left behind

Visit http://www.xtralyrics.com

And if you need some extra time to gather all your rations

I'll keep the shop lights burning longer than today

Before the night, before you drive up to your parents' hometown

And put your effervescent lights out on display

I don't ever wanna hear, they won't give what you need

I don't ever wanna hear

I don't ever wanna hear, they won't let you be

I don't ever wanna see

I don't ever wanna hear, they won't give what you need

I don't ever wanna hear

I don't ever wanna hear, they won't let you be

I don't ever wanna see

I don't ever want to hear

I don't ever want to hear

I don't ever want to hear
