Blue Christmas Last year we were wrapped in red This year, we’re covered in gray The snow that lit up your face Was replaced by freezing rain I can’t seem to get over you I don’t know how I’ll make it through this Blue Christmas Without you Well that’s fine alright I’ll have more room under the tree I won’t cry all night And beg for you to come back to me I still can’t seem to get over you Somehow I’m gonna make it through this Blue Christmas Without you

Evergreen 05:13
Evergreen Home in this worn out apartment Wrapping your gifts on the carpet I wish I could give you the world Everything you ever wanted And we save for food, we have nothing left I say Give all we have expect nothing back I say One day, you’ll have it all You’ll want for nothing my love One day, we’ll have a tree, And lights, and everything, One day, the wreaths on the wall Won’t be lined with garberdeen Baby we’ll be evergreen Stockings hung out on the rusty fire escape With the lights around the rail Their paled by the city lights, But their better than nothing, you say Oh Holy Night, the stars are brightly shining Fall on your knees

Candlelight 04:22
Candlelight It’s been years since I’ve felt anything I have fears that this means anything I always spend Christmas alone Well, not alone, but alone I’m going under And ever year, washed in candle light I see you singing Silent Night And I feel at home once again If it’s only for a moment, it’s a moment x I fear I’m becoming the snow When the light shines on me I will melt away (I’m going under) It’s been years since I’ve felt anything I have fears that this means anything Sing it to me softly, let the light flicker and play Then blow the candle out.

Porch Light Swinging Travelled through the ice and snow to make it home Travelled in my winter coat to make it home Maybe that's the best that I can do coming home empty handed Maybe that's the best that I can do Coming home late to my front porch Ohhh, with that porch light swinging Stockings hung and chimney strung with all the lights Candles in the windows look like fireflies and it's calling me in with that porch light swinging And all that I can see is my family gathered round the tree; And all I long to see is that porch light swinging over me And all I long to see are my cousins running round with glee And all I long to be is laughing over cups of coffee And all i long to see is that snow falling quietly All I long to see is my family on Christmas eve

Always forward, that is the mantra.

With a full length album and seven EPs planned for the year, the path to its completion will undoubtedly be long and toilsome. This project’s focus is on the internal struggles and relationships that inform the way we interact with the world. ... more
