Sugar high sugar low
Don’t where to go from here
If you stay I’m gonna go
Don’t know how to control my fear
I should’ve treated you nice
Even when you burnt the rice
You were the only one who stayed by my side
There’s no one at home because my life turned out a mess
I watch TV alone and sitting in my Sunday best
And if I just reached out to my neighbours once or twice
I wouldn’t drink my nog alone this Christmas night
Stripping down, the air con’s broken, like the jolly folk next door
They’re keeping me up, they’re popping the bons, I see them smiling through the door
I fold the invitation they left on my front pavement
Because they don’t want the likes of me
Sitting beneath their Christmas tree
There’s no one at home because my life turned out a mess
I watch TV alone and sitting in my Sunday best
And if I just reached out to my neighbours once or twice
I wouldn’t drink my nog alone this Christmas night
Was I like this as a kid?
Disappointing life I’ve lived
Cold, cold house when I was young
Never dreamt of what I could become
Maybe it’s time to go out and get in a fight
Maybe it’s time to see these Christmas lights up
Everything is going wrong
And everything at once
How could I not overcome something that I've done?
Roll my sleeves up, start again
So my loss stays strong
Forget about the first attempt
When I was young
There’s no one at home but that’ll change, just give me time
Don’t know why you think I’ve got to tell you I’m always fine
I dust myself right down and I walk up to your front porch
I know it’s late but can you handle just one more?
