about

christmash or christsmash? anyway here's a huge song about societal complacency and Louis CK's awful apology

lyrics

it's not just the falling snow that keeps me banging on the door
and it's not the leaves below that make me thing we can do better
i know the cold can be a gift, and don't get me wrong
there's a dread that lies within in
it's the climate not the weather
-
i hope you mean it, i read your letter
well i read the first bit, you've done better
step into winter, spirit of giving
do you believe that, it's about your forgiving
the world is yours, it always has been
the ease with which you, you have been living
we are complicit, that is our power
we can do nothing and it remains ours
-
it's gonna take forever, and i'm already on my way
if you wanna get it started, you don't need to wait for me
as if i could make a difference, take any suffering away
as if you needed my permission, see you there on christmas day
thought that we were getting closer
thought i could smell it in the air
never looking out the window,
thought that we were almost there
but i don't think we were moving
not that anybody cared
say there waiting for permission
slowly racking up the fare
it's gonna take forever, i'm already on my way
