She Comes Video (MV)

Holidays are hardest here
We are just beginning again
Mostly she keeps to herself in the evenings
Flashing lights like motel signs
Light our block right down the line
Even I strung up a pine in the yard
But we don't celebrate here
We wait for a new year
She's got tinsel eyes
In disguise
When she comes to me

Some nights when the sky is clear
I am sound and she's all ears
But in her eyes I see
A shine of tears
She smiles like she's struggling
She pretends she's happy
When we touch lips I feel
The skin of skin
Her calluses
We don't celebrate here
We wait for a new year
She's got tinsel eyes in disguise
She comes to me

And she tells me she's over it
That we all die a little bit
Everyday and the more we live
The more we learn to forget
But she's holding it

In the winters we go dim
We get under the influence
Memories can make you
If you let them
But at least we're broken in
Even some of the pain is worn thin
Still the holidays are feeling endless
We don't celebrate here
We wait for a new year
She's got tinsel eyes in disguise
She comes to me
