Aurora Borealis

(album: I Am Become Christmas - 2012)

Beneath apocalyptic snowflakes from above
We're not in peril, we are in apoca-love
So let's go walking, or Christmas shopping
No, let's do something a bit more shocking
Let's go to the windmill, let's find some catharsis
Let's go to the graveyard in cover of darkness

And it's okay, I've done this tons of times
Well, maybe once a year since I was very young
It will be fine, okay? I do this all the time
And nothing could go wrong, unless that's what you'd like

Is this the first time that you've ever seen
Aurora Borealis crush mankind?
The wind chimes chiming with the screams
A pretty winter night, your hand in mine
The horizon is a fog from the breath of everyone
And I hope you're having fun; I just had to share with someone

This is the empty building that I call my home
Baby it's cold inside, don't leave me here alone
There's no good movies, but there's a fire
Well, scented candles that are on fire
So let's take the night off, be joyful and joyously
Enjoy the moon-rise, and let it destroy us

And it's okay, as long as we believe we'll be okay
As if anything could go wrong on Christmas Eve
Okay, you know I'm glad you're here
So I can show you this before I disappear

Is this the first time that you've ever seen
Aurora Borealis crush mankind?
A flashlight underneath my chin
A pretty winter night, your hand in mine
Now we're swallowed by the fog from the breath of everyone
I can barely see you now, but your smile is a frown
Yeah, I knew it had to stop because I always mess it up
And I get it if you run; I just had to share with someone
